Ten-year-old Olaf lives in a world where hiring family members and friends is common practice. For the right money, anyone can create the illusion of ideal happiness for himself or herself. When the „Rent A Life” company holds auditions at Olaf’s school, he doesn’t hesitate for a moment. He has every intention of taking part and being cast as a friend at a birthday party for a little girl from a rich family. It quickly turns out that the cost of taking part in this illusion is a high one.
