Synopsis
In the lead role as Sascha, we see Victoria Carmen Sonne. Sascha's story in "Holiday" is about a woman's choice between the rich, powerful man Michael and the young, innocent boy Thomas. Michael and his gangster crew hang out at his luxury villa on the Turkish Riviera. Sascha is his mistress and maybe one day his wife. A life of luxury and excess forever. Every day with Michael is like a fantasy; parties and expensive gifts, gourmet restaurants and designer clothes – but of course also psychological and physical violence and crime. So when Sascha meets Thomas, the young, charming sailor, she becomes torn. He is uncomplicated and sweet. Could he offer her a more honest and genuine life?
