What Christiane F. was in the 80s, Rashid A.'s story is today. Rashid, the son of a Lebanese-Palestinian family, is neither German nor Lebanese nor Palestinian; he calls himself an "Arab boy" in the relevant chat rooms where he and his friends share homemade violence clips. They adhere to the law of the street, where everyone must take what is theirs. Those who cannot do this become "victims" - they are not up to the struggle of life. With the help of Aabid, who rose from being a refugee boy to a "mega player" in the red-light district, Rashid embarks on a criminal career until he loses control of his life due to his drug addiction. His arrest saves him. In prison, he awaits his deportation - and Germany, the country he so despises, becomes the embodiment of all his longings.
