Synopsis
When a powerful mobster orders Afro-Berliner DJane Sweety to handle a lucrative deal, her career as a petty criminal finally seems to be taking off. But that very same evening, when she is robbed of all the loot, Sweety's visions of a comfortable future life all of a sudden turn into a nightmare: the mobster gives her just one week to pay off her debt. Only Sweety's straight-edge boyfriend Klaus might be able to help her out, but when she gets home she catches him in the act with another woman. Sweety is beside herself, knocking both boyfriend and lover out cold and fleeing the flat in the certainty that she’s now also gone and killed the blonde woman she knocked out. Sweety's nightmarish journey through Berlin has begun. Her last hope is Italian Gino and his German half-brother Ninja. These two unsuccessful karate teachers offer Sweety the opportunity to pull off a major heist together. It could save Sweety's life and simultaneously help Gino and Ninja pay the rising rent for their dilapidated karate club. Or even buy it and finally escape the pressure put on them by the most underhanded property sharks in the city. The unconventional preparations for the big robbery get underway. From here Sweety, Gino and Ninja embark on the greatest and most dangerous adventure of their lives.
