The girls are challenging their roles as daughters of refugees and immigrants. They’ve been trying to create a space for themselves in their new home country and at the same time, negotiate their roles as young women within their own communities. The film accompanies them during those formative years as they struggle to materialize their hopes and dreams. As well as following them during their daily lives, the director has workshops with the girls where they reflect upon their relationship to their new and distant home, the clash of customs and traditions, their interaction with each other and with Germans (or the lack thereof), and on their future goals and dreams. Consequently, they write scenes and then stage them in front of the camera. In those scenes the girls envision themselves in the future, for example as a renowned chef with a secret crush on one of her customers, or a police-officer riding her motorcycle out to prevent crime. They also role-play, taking on the part of their German school-mates or their mothers. This allows them to work through painful experiences and playfully translate them into possible future perspectives under the cover of fiction.
