    Not much of a storyline. It’s about a young teen that comes back to a city in Germany for the school year.
    He meets up with a friend, who lives in the same apartment complex, who seems to repeatedly get him in trouble, especially with the neighborhood bully.
    After many shuffles with the bully, he eventually stands up to him, even going so far as saving his life in the end.
