For undisclosed reasons, the entrances and exits of a Berlin apartment building are blocked indefinitely. No one can get in or out. Left in the dark by the police, the residents begin to speculate. Initially, they suspect there may be a bomb planted just outside the door. Then, a rumor about a criminal hiding in the courtyard spreads. Suspicion turns into insecurity, which escalates into aggression. Prejudices deepen polarization, old conflicts resurface, and the residents start to suspect and denounce one another.

The new film by Asli Özge (Lifelong, 2013 Haifa IFF) presents a microcosm of society, creating a tense and volatile ensemble drama.

Filmography: All of a Sudden (2016), Lifelong (2013), Men on the Bridge (2009).
