In her documentary, Aysun Bademsoy portrays five young Turkish women from Berlin Kreuzberg who used to be members of the successful Turkish women's soccer team "BSC-Agrispor". Until recently, the friends had high hopes for an independent future based on their sporting success. But now the season is coming to an end and the five young women, all in their 20s, will stop playing soccer. They don't know exactly what they want to do with their lives. Apprenticeships are rare, and without money, independence from the strict parental home is impossible. But now they are enjoying the Berlin summer together once again, wandering the streets, chasing boys, going to parties, "hanging out".

MovieDocumentary

Between September 2000 and April 2007, eight men with Turkish roots, a man of Greek descent and a German policewoman were murdered.

After a failed bank robbery, the trail finally led to the right-wing extremist terrorist group National Socialist Underground (NSU). After the suicide of the two main perpetrators, the trial against the only survivor of the NSU trio, Beate Zschäpe, and four alleged helpers and supporters began in 2013 and ended in 2018.
