Synopsis

Cemal is indiffently willing in an arranged marriage, when his uncle and cousin drag him to a sex holiday in Ukraine in the occasion of his bachelor party. The rather shy guy stumbles upon beautiful Sascha - an independent and confident girl with an agenda of her own.
Despite the language barrier the chemistry between them is undeniable. In an adventurous night through the snowy streets of Kiev they will experience affection, respect and love.
Sprinkled with hilarious notes of cultural clashes and an endearing display of the kindness of strangers, this idiosyncratic “comedy drama” will warm hearts in the most unexpected way.
