Hossein (played by Parviz Sayyad) is a Turkish migrant worker who works in a pressing factory in West Germany. After work, he takes the metro to the Kreuzberg neighborhood in Berlin, where he lives in a residential complex with several of his fellow countrymen. They, unable to connect with the people and the environment around them, lead a monotonous and melancholic life. One day, Hossein’s roommate, who has grown weary of this situation, packs his suitcase and leaves his apartment with the intention of returning to his homeland in Turkey.
