Skipper, also known as the Italian, from his point of view leads a life of "orderly" you do heroin and cocaine, pretends to make a living comfortably, is alert and try not to go to jail. Clever, cute, handsome, lives in Frankfurt, in a building decent, though not too far from impoverished backgrounds who attend to "work". He has a former wife and children who no longer sees a long time. Its existence is like a soap bubble in which not only the external noise, but also the emotions, by now, there's muted. In this oasis of tranquility suicide, the mere presence that manages to shake him, to embarrass, to question, is that of Claire, her elderly neighbor who affectionately calls Skipper Clarita. He helps her from time to time to carry the shopping up the stairs, and already there is, using the attic as his bunker to hide money and "stuff". The interweaving of these two lives that apparently could not be more distant, in fact, as in the classic fairy tale, the magical element that gives a turn to the fate of Skipper. A spell that is not in anything supernatural but, rather, in the extreme value and rarity of understanding, solidarity, openness to others as a means of instinctive self-knowledge. For the first time, faced with the tenderness and wisdom of Clarita, Skipper begins to doubt everything, especially about himself, even while she gets to jump the barricade of legality anything to avoid trouble, managing to save him from a police raid. The deep and mysterious bond between the two, initially bewildering and confusing Skipper, is the son of suffering - his and that of Clarita, which ultimately will prove to be a former police officer that the drug has torn a child - but also the Missing the point of balance so far between moments of extreme euphoria and self-destructive temptations, including the fiction of normalcy impossible for him and the throbbing pain of disappointment. The impossibility of love between him sick and Saskia, a prostitute, drug addict, is another glimpse of the truth about his condition. A Crew is not the time for courage a phone call later, there is a leap into the unknown world of the recovery community. And before, the true story of a man who told how he was saved by a guardian angel.
