Drama

A group of young slackers spend most of their time hanging out in front of a Munich apartment building. When a Greek immigrant named Jorgos moves in, however, their aimless lives are shaken up. Soon, new tensions arise both within the group and with Jorgos.

VIBE

A stark, unvarnished look at aimless youth and the insidious nature of prejudice. It feels like watching a social experiment unfold, exposing uncomfortable truths with a detached, observational gaze.
