Synopsis

Spring 1990, a city on the brink of transformation. Niyazi, a young man of Turkish descent, toils away behind the counter of a McDonald’s in West Berlin, his heart set on one thing: escaping to Istanbul as fast as he can. When a friend whispers of cheaper apartments in the East, a daring plan takes root—work in the West, live in the East, and save enough to leave a whole year sooner.

Determined to make this uneasy balance work, Niyazi steps into the unknown, agreeing to a blind date with Klara, a spirited young woman from East Berlin. But beneath her charming facade, Klara’s mind races with the possibilities this connection might unlock for her own future. In a city divided by more than walls, their encounter becomes a delicate dance of hope, ambition, and survival.
