In the organizer's words:

"I have no idea what my life would have been like with a different profession. But mining is now a part of me." Trans* woman Martina is the only woman who has ever worked in coal mining in Germany. Now she works in salt mining. Her former miners drive down into the dark tunnels for their last shift. Faces blackened by coal dust for the last time, then farewell to colleagues who have become friends. The future means reorientation, in new jobs, new hobbies. "Locke" travels to France with his best friend "Langer" in a camper van in search of the sea. A breathtakingly beautifully filmed documentary story about the past underground and the beginning of the rest of life.
