are his friends on the social platform “Tracebook” who listen to him and send him
love from around the world. Today, just having reached his 1000th friend, he wants
to meet his virtual girlfriend in reality. But his destiny will change his entire virtual
life, so that everything takes a different course than planned on “Tracebook”.
