Synopsis
I’m going on a trip. By means of an old children’s game the film is searching for the value of memories: Five completely different personalities disclose splinters of thought, report on crucial moments of their lives. But where ist their connection? The own memory is replaced by evidence of previous generations, whereas the life behind the pictures remains concealed. We all carry our lives in a widely travelled suitcase: a suitcase full of memories, which are passed on to us but are never really our own.
