With its high crime rate and large foreign population, the high-rise estate Osdorfer Born in west Hamburg is regarded as something of a social hot spot. Life for young men living in Germany's urban ghettos is characterised by a feeling of being ostracised and a sense of barely having a future. Consequently, they compensate this feeling with a mixture of local patriotism, macho behaviour and crime. OSDORF is a documentary portrait of a group of young immigrants living in one of Germany's metropolitan ghettos.

A documentary portrait of teenagers from an immigrant background,living in an urban German ghetto. There's no more good or bad life anymore. Maybe you get lucky, you're a film star, write a song and make it big. It's luck. You can play the lottery, get lucky and win 10 million. It's the same. But in reality there's only a life in the middle. You work for your money and have some free time. You have fun, work, have fun. That's all that's left. You gotta do it. But to tell the truth, I know what game they're playing. I'm 17 and I already know it. (Alican, 17)

A young parking garage attendant with hat and trench coat and long arms conducts the cars to the one or other exit. The precise operation appears like the choreography of a powerful dance. The character of images and the musical composition annihilate boundaries, outside world and inner world merge.
