Synopsis

When a receptionist at a government office in Innsbruck—who spends his days folding origami figures and remembering his late turtle—receives nothing but an impersonal greeting card for his 30th work anniversary, he realizes he has betrayed his dreams of exploring the world. So, when an opening at the tourist office comes up, he seizes his chance and applies.
