Selling Sex — Season 1

Business student Nelly (Ella Morgen) is enrolled in an exorbitantly expensive degree program, is doing an unpaid internship at a high-end financial consultancy, and works a catering job on the side. Yet, she can only afford a shared apartment with her childhood friend Bonnie (Manal Raga a Sabit)—and faces the prospect of spending years paying off her student debt. When she runs into her former colleague Giulia (Samirah Breuer)—who is now working as an escort—a completely different path opens up for making a lot of money very quickly.

Nelly (Ella Morgen)—alias "Aurora"—faces her first real test: she has been booked for a bachelor party. She heads to the event in a limousine with white leather seats, accompanied by Giulia (Samirah Breuer) and two other escort girls (Lera Abova, Flora Li Thiemann). The four women make a stop at a gas station to pick up drinks for the pre-party—and have some unpleasant encounters. Meanwhile, Bonnie (Manal Raga a Sabit) embarks on an unusual date. Leif (Joscha Baltha) accompanies her…

The bachelor party takes an unexpected turn! While Liliana (Lera Abova) tries in vain to speak with the agency, Eve (Flora Li Thiemann) and Giulia (Samirah Breuer) are already getting the party started. Now it's up to Nelly (Ella Morgen). She finds herself drawn to the client, Umut (Xidir Koder Alian), who is throwing the party for his best friend Devin (Omid Memar). Now "Aurora" must decide what she's getting herself into!

While Bonnie (Manal Raga a Sabit) works toward her fashion design degree, Nelly (Ella Morgen) eagerly anticipates an important date. She is meeting Tsuneo (Madieu Ulbrich), the agency's most important client. The businessman is attractive, confident—and exciting! He invites Nelly to relinquish control. Passion gives way to disillusionment—followed by a call from her colleague Ben (Malik Blumenthal), who works for her mentor, Dolly (Sasha von Halbach).

Nelly (Ella Morgen) travels to Switzerland for an assignment governed by a specific "protocol." Businessman Dirk (Florian Fitz) has mapped everything out for her and her colleague Charlotte (Amelie Henning). However, Nelly encounters some surprises—including an invitation from Dirk's assistant, Rena (Catrin Striebeck), and her boyfriend (Julius Nitschkoff). Her supervisor, Dr. Storch (Inga Busch), offers Nelly a job in financial consulting, but the compensation isn't enough to tempt her to accept.

Nelly (Ella Morgen) now knows what she wants to do professionally. Finally, Tsuneo (Madieu Ulbrich) gets back in touch. She wants to win the globally successful businessman over not just as a regular client, but also leverage him for her own plans. Other paths open up as well. When she opens up to her colleague Ben (Malik Blumenthal), she faces a decision. Romance or business? For Nelly, the answer has long been clear. She develops a business idea of her own—for herself!
