Mahmoud spent three years in prison. Now the petty criminal projectionist is finally free again. He would like to become an artist, but he lacks talent. Fortunately, he has his best buddy Hennig, who is there to help him, but doesn't really have a clue. But no matter what Henning does, Mahmoud ruins it again. Together, the buddies throw themselves into life in pursuit of fun and money. With his second "Berlin film", legendary director Klaus Lemke tells an unusual buddy story in his typical style: wild, experimental, restless - with young amateur actors and a lot of improvisation, this is an unvarnished picture of the German capital.
