In the bustling heart of 1909 Berlin, young Karl Siebrecht arrives with nothing but dreams and determination, having left his orphaned past behind. At just 16, he is resolved to conquer the city. On the train to his new life, fate introduces him to Rieke Busch, a spirited girl from the working-class district of Wedding, who becomes his steadfast companion. Together, they navigate the city's vibrant yet unforgiving streets. Karl's journey is a tapestry of small victories and crushing setbacks. His entrepreneurial spirit ignites when he establishes a luggage transportation company, only to watch his triumph crumble as a trusted partner betrays him. Standing amidst the wreckage of his ambitions, Karl refuses to surrender. Just as a glimmer of hope emerges, the shadow of the First World War looms, threatening everything he has fought for. In this poignant tale of ambition and resilience, Karl must find a way to rise once more, even as the world teeters on the brink of chaos.
