Berlin Alexanderplatz

As 30-year-old Francis gets washed up on the shores of Southern Europe he swears an oath to God: from now on he wants to be a new, a better, a decent man. Soon after Francis finds himself in Berlin, where he realizes how hard it is to be righteous when you are an illegal refugee in Germany – without papers, without nation and without a work permit. When he receives an enticing offer from the charismatic German Reinhold to earn easy money, Francis initially resists the temptation, maintains his oath and stays away from Reinhold‘s shady dealings. But eventually, he is sucked into Berlin‘s underworld and his life spirals out of control.
