A collision of debates. In fear of being cancelled, the chairwomen of the association "House of Womxn" decide to make their panel more diverse. As a result, they invite guests to their clubhouse in rural Brandenburg who meet their supposed diversity requirements. So, a queer-feminist group of BiPOC, non-binary people and women with very different points of view come together to write a joint manifesto for the upcoming international women's conference. Time and again the protagonists address the audience directly, which leaves the audience with insights to their individual as well as collective experiences. Merle Grimme stages a steeming, humorous and ironic film about diversity, feminism and empowerment.
