Sylvain Remy

90년대 중반, 독일. 터키 출신의 학생 아슬리와 전쟁을 피해 독일로 온 레바논 출신의 카리스마 넘치는 사이드는 파티에서 만나 첫눈에 반해 사랑에 빠진다. 두 연인은 아슬리 어머니의 반대를 무릅쓰고 결혼을 한다. 그들의 험난한 사랑은 아름답게 해피엔딩을 맞는 것 같다. 여기까지 영화는 고전적인 사랑 이야기의 형식을 따른다. 하지만 이후, 전개되는 이야기는 완전히 다른 양상을 보인다. 아슬리는 결혼 후 점점 이슬람 극단주의에 경도되는 사이드와 갈등을 빚기 시작하고 사이드는 어느 날 홀연히 사라진다.

Four troubled friends who despite the feeling that they live standardized lives share a flat under the sceptical looks of their neighbours.

Paul, shy, and not exactly what one would call a ladies man, checks his answering machine and gets a surprise message from a woman named Sandra. Great, except that he knows three Sandras: one he'd love to hear from, one he'd hate to hear from and a third he'd never expect to call him. Paul desperately wants to find out who is the woman who called and enlists the help of his close friend, who is a ladies man. Marc, though very busy himself and eager to pursue his business, agrees to help. And so begins an urgent investigation. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
