Berlin, 1990: There young Russian immigrants wind up in eastern Berlin on their search for happiness and good fortune. The short story collection Russendisko became a best seller for author Wladimir Kaminer twelve years ago. Now, the autobiographical story has been adapted for the cinema, with German actor Matthias Schweighöfer as Wladimir Kaminer. It’s a hilarious comedy about the wild days in Berlin following the fall of the Wall.
