In the largely Muslim neighborhood of Wedding-Berlin, tensions run high because of rival gangs and strong ethnic affiliations. Soheil, a 16 year-old Iranian whose family has recently moved to the town, befriends the Turkish and Arab youth in the “Husseyn” gang and experiences first love with a Turkish girl. What he doesn’t tell his friends: he’s not a Muslim; he’s Jewish. Based on a provocative autobiography.
