Plot Synopsis (Courtesy of Shirly Brener Interview):
"It is a
psychological thriller situated in Berlin in current times. There are
two gangs - there is a skinhead gang and a Turkish gang, and they are
rivals. On the background of this there is a serial killer that is
taking Turkish children and murdering them, and putting them in wax.
It's a very dark movie, like Silence of The Lambs or like the Bone
Collector.
Finally, what reveals itself throughout the movie is that the two gangs
are fighting and the Turkish gang thinks that the German gang is the one
killing the children. Because they are putting the children's bodies in
wax and painting their faces in white, and in Berlin - and especially in
East Berlin - the German race does not want to mingle with the
darker-skin people. A lot of Nazi remnants from World War II.
So, the gangs start killing each other but it actually turns out that
it's not the skinheads, and that there is a sick, crazy serial killer
(played by Udo Kier). Armand Assante is playing the Turkish police
commissioner. He is actually married to a German woman, so they have a
sort of dichotomy of a relationship between a Turkish guy and a German
woman while there are fights between the Turkish and the German gang.
There is a very complicated investigation, and finally they find this
crazy man.
The story is very suspenseful, because till the end of the story you
don't know who is killing the children. You're really suspicious of the
German gang. There are a lot of action sequences, drugs, car chases, and
then there is the big finale when everybody comes together, and the
German gang and the Turkish gang actually end up liking each other."
