Farmer’s daughter Shirin is facing an arranged marriage with the administrator who put her father in a Turkish prison. To escape, she flees to Germany, where she hopes to find Mahmud, the man she regards as her fiancé. In Cologne, Shirin gets work in a factory and finds a place to stay in a home. When she and the other “guest workers” are fired, her residency visa becomes invalid. Out of necessity, she works as a prostitute in the housing for Turkish men, under the thumb of a German pimp. It does not go well for long. (Berlinale)
