A Summer Tale

Set in a German suburb against the backdrop of the 2006 World Cup, SOMMERMÄRCHEN tells a parallel story, about Siegfried, a 13 year old mixed-raced German-Indonesian kid, who needs to defend his social status as the class clown against a new Chinese class mate and his Indonesian father Jojok, a 50-year old Indonesian man, who reconnects with a former lover back home and has to question all his life choices that led to his emigration to Germany.
