Young Mae walks through the streets of Vienna as a punk, in her dead brother’s Converse sneakers. She lives on canned beer, spray paints walls, and has a go at poetry slams. She’s interested in living on the edge, not middle class life. While working off a punishment at an institution providing support and care for people with Aids, she meets Paul who is extremely ill — and falls in love with him. A humor-filled story about growing up between love and death, at times seditiously loud, then thoroughly tender again. Production notes
