Plot

Marija is a Ukrainian immigrant, who lives in Dortmund's Nordstadt, a migrant problem district. In her bathroom, water drips from the ceiling. She works as a poorly paid chambermaid in a hotel and dreams of having her own hairdressing salon. But that becomes a distant prospect, when she loses her job, because a colleague, also a migrant, blows the whistle on her petty thefts.
