Goodbye Berlin

Goodbye Berlin

Fatih Akin co-writes and directs this German comedy drama adapted from Wolfgang Herrndorf's novel. The film follows disillusioned teenager Maik (Tristan Göbel) as he embarks on a road trip with new classmate Tschick (Anand Batbileg). After not receiving an invite to his crush Tatjani (Aniya Wendel)'s upcoming birthday party and with his alcoholic mother in rehab, Maik recruits Tschick and heads off on an impromptu journey in a stolen car.

With no particular destination in mind the pair head out of Berlin and into the German countryside in a quest for excitement and adventure.
