Born in Germany of Turkish parentage, filmmaker Fatih Akin's newest film is
an utterly assured and profoundly moving study in which the lives of six
people -- four Turks and two Germans -- crisscross through love and tragedy.

Akin continues his insightful exploration of the things that divide and
bridge two seemingly different cultures and generations to arrive at the
universal.  The film stars Turkey's revered Tuncel Kurtiz and
Fassbinder-icon Hanna Schygulla, along with a cast of talented performers.
