Story

This is a bittersweet comedy about taxi driver Hartmut Mackowiak, a ranting bad tempered guy, who dislikes anything that is new or alien to him. His wife leaves him for another man. To make things worse, six-year-old Hayat appears in his taxi. She doesn’t speak German, but he can’t get rid of her as much as he tries. Finally he embarks on a search for Hayat’s mother.
