The pert Tina is sick of school and the muff in her Bavarian village. She wants to go with Tino - attendant of a visiting auto-scooter - who has to leave the place for dubious reasons. However he lets her down and leaves alone. Now Tina persuades fellow student Robby, who has a crush on her, to take her on a random trip with his motor-scooter. It seems only to be a matter of time until he realizes that she's just using him to follow her boyfriend - or will the shy Robby manage to win her heart on their chaotic journey?

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This is peak Neue Deutsche Welle cinema: pop stars acting, low budgets, maximum earnest chaos. Nena was already famous for '99 Luftballons' when she made this.
Director Wolfgang Büld was a music video veteran, which explains why this feels like three Nena videos stitched together with screaming.
