Euphorie

Series

Synopsis

The 16-year-old Mila (Derya Akyol) spent the last three months in a youth psychiatric ward because everyone thought she had wanted to kill herself when she ran into traffic back then. But Mila thinks that's bullshit. She was simply fed up with the world and all its crises—and with the fact that school hottie Basti (Kosmas Schmidt) had sent a sexvideo of her to the entire school. Now she’s coming back, and everything has changed—but it’s still just as messed up as before. Mila is hurtling full speed into a love triangle. All she really wants is to be with Ali (Sira Anna-Faal), the girl she fell for in the clinic, who has since disappeared without a trace. If it weren't for young aspiring actor Jannis (Eren M. Güvercin), who is just as overwhelmed and fed up with the world as she is, and with whom Mila is in danger of falling into a dangerous spiral of drugs and violence...
