What might put you off
  • It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1977: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

Encouraged by the stories of guest workers who pay visit to their homeland, a young man Filip finds himself on a central station in Frankfurt on the Main, Germany. While looking for his old friend Mate who would help him to get around in new environment, Filip experiences one trouble after another until he finally finds Mate lethally wounded.
