Story / Synopsis:
Young Spanish man called Nico arrived at the airport in Germany. As he is taking a look around, he listens to a language course on headphones, with greetings in German. Then Emma comes up and starts talking to him. Nico is taking a look around the airport and absorbing the sights and sounds. As he leaves the airport he meets Emma again. And he suddenly realizes that his bag has vanished. With people coming and going and saying goodbye to each other around him, Nico doesn’t know what he should do. Then Emma and her aunt Lisa return and offer to help him.
Lisa and Emma hear from Nico why he has come to Germany, and they give him a ride into town. In the car, Emma arranges alphabet cookies to form her name and teaches Nico how to introduce himself in German.
While they are stuck in traffic, Emma and Lisa practice introductions with Nico. When Lisa stops at a gas station to fill up, Nico suddenly recognizes the cab that drove away with his bag in it. At the gas station, Nico stops the cab which he thinks has his bag inside. Lisa tries to calm the angry cab driver and introduces herself and Nico.
Meanwhile Nico opens the trunk and find nothing. Lisa, Nico and Emma are about to drive on when Lisa runs into her friend Max. Max asks Nico who he is and where he’s comes from. When it becomes clear that Nico doesn’t know how to find his aunt, Max has an idea.
Lisa phones her father who is in the police force. He says she is to bring Nico to the police station. Maybe her father can help Nico. Before going to the police station, Lisa and Nico take Emma to a children’s birthday party. On the way there, Nico draws Emma a picture with numbers, and Emma teaches Nico how to count to 12 in German. While Lisa is taking Emma to the door, Nico waits in the car, listening to the radio. When someone calls the radio and mentions a lost bag, Nico grabs Lisa’s cell phone and dials the number of the radio station. Lisa is exchanging phone numbers with Lotte’s mother when she suddenly hears Nico on the radio. Nico is trying to explain his problem to the radio presenter. Lisa runs to the car and grabs the phone out of his hand.
At the police station, Lisa’s father asks Nico where he lives, his date of birth and passport number. He wants to help Nico. As Nico still doesn’t know where to find his aunt, Lisa takes him back to her shared apartment. Nico meets Lisa’s roommates, Sebastian and Nina, who are hanging fairy lights up in the courtyard. After they have introduced themselves, Lisa asks whether Nico can stay in the shared apartment for the next few days. In the apartment, Nico shows Nina and Sebastian the photo of his aunt Yara. While Nina is getting drinks for everyone, they all try to work out how Nico can find his aunt.
Sebastian goes to get Nawin and introduces him to Nico. Since everyone is hungry, they decide to order pizza. The pizza delivery woman has arrived. Lisa pays the bill and Sebastian hands the pizzas around. When the roommates are sitting down to eat, Nico finds out why there’s going to be a party in the apartment that evening.
Nico’s first morning in the shared apartment: Nico comes into the kitchen half asleep and is surprised to see Lisa racing around in a panic. Nina explains what’s wrong. Nico gets to learn the words for several objects. The lesson is over. Nico looks around the classroom while Lisa is on the phone to someone who has applied for Nawin’s room. The next applicant arrives. It quickly becomes clear that she has very particular ideas about life in a shared apartment. It’s also obvious that Lisa has a problem. Then they leave to begin the hunt for Yara’s shop.
Lisa and Nico walk through the city looking for the address that someone Sebastian knows posted under the photo of Yara’s shop. But when they reach their destination they get a nasty surprise.
In this film Nico experience many things about Deutsch, From the language, culture, and of course the food count in. Nico make the viewer's position like himself, totally lost in the foreign country literally don't have any idea what he gonna do, he lost his bag, he lost his passport, he lost his aunt address, he can't speak Deutsch fluently.
Review :
I think this film is good, this film is able to teach us and educate us indirectly in speaking, listening to German because when I watched it I was carried away to say the words that were spoken by the actor and the actress , from this film it also teaches our material that has been studied before and to remember again such as from numbers, how to speak introduction ourself and ask questions and for ask for repeat sentences. we can also learn little by little the culture of the German people, they are kind and friendly, they are happy to help and care for others
And i think i will give 4/5 for the movie besides i still not too understand the conversation but i like it
