1000 Miles from Tashkent

It’s the story of a young couple. Nastja from Kiew and Dima from Tashkent. They have come to Berlin to start a new life together. Dima is a musician. Nastja is an actress. They live in a miserable apartment, that Dima refuses to leave, because he’s convinced the Turkish men in the court-yard will break in if he does so. Nastja thinks he’s completely paranoid. The only person Dima knows is his brother Boris, who runs a shady garage. He offers Dima a job, but Dima refuses to make money with anything else than his music. Nastjas big hope is the contact of a theatre director she got from a Russian friend. Dima gets more and more jealous when Nastjas meeting with the director takes longer than expected...
