Iman (33) left Iran years ago and cut ties with his family. Living a life of exile in Berlin,he drifts through the city, chasing closeness and solitude. He works day and night in two different jobs: as a caregiver for an old man and at a truck wash station. He invents stories to fill the void. His only relationship is an affair with André, a man he meets for sex at night in a park. A fleeting visit from his cousin Maneli, whom he barely knows, gently disrupts Iman's routine. Their shared heritage of culture and pain lingers in the background. They talk, go to the pool, and fall asleep in a patch of forest. On his endless paths through the city, fragments from the lives of other passers-by drift alongside him. His search begins to connect with the world.

Berlin, 1930, during the rise of Nazism. Hermann Hermann, a Russian emigrant and chocolate manufacturer, married to the capricious Lydia, loses his temper more and more every day when dealing with his workers and other businessmen; until he meets Felix, a vagrant, who seems to be physically identical to him; a disconcerting fact that leads Hermann Hermann to plot a particular way out of a fake world he actually hates.
