Summaries

Katja's life collapses after the deaths of her husband and son in a bomb attack. After a time of mourning and injustice, Katja seeks revenge.

After four years in prison on drug charges, reformed drug-dealer and Turkish immigrant Nuri, and his young German wife Katja finally settle into a happy daily routine in Hamburg, with high hopes of making a fresh start for themselves and their six-year-old son Rocco. But then, a high-power nail bomb and a racially motivated attack crushes friends and relatives under the unbearable burden of tragedy, robbing Katja of everything she loved: Nuri and Rocco. Has Nuri's dark past finally caught up with the family to haunt them forever? Little by little, the devastated mother succumbs first to drugs to dull her pain, then to utter despair, as the search for truth is sometimes an impossible task for a complex legal system with tied hands. And when the justice of men isn't enough, the thirst for retribution is insatiable.—Nick Riganas

In Hamburg, the Turkish drug-dealer Nuri Sekerci is released from prison after serving four-years. He immediately marries the German Katja Sekerci and opens a translation office since he graduated in Administration while in prison. They have a six-year-old son, Rocco, and they are a happy family. One afternoon, Katja borrows his car to meet her pregnant friend, Birgit, and while going to the car, she sees a woman parking a bicycle near Nuri's office without lock. She calls her attention and says that her bicycle could be robbed, but the woman does not pay attention to her. Katja spends the afternoon with Birgit and when she returns to take Nuri and Rocco home, she learns that a home-made bomb exploded and killed her husband and son. Katja becomes depressed and uses drugs and suspect that it was the neo-Nazis that killed her beloved ones. They are arrested and go to trial, but there is a ring of Nazis to protect them.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
