''I have more privilege than any person in my family. And I''m still screwed.''
A young woman attends a play about the Berlin Wall coming down, and is the only Black person in the audience.
She is sitting with her boyfriend by a bathing lake, and four neo-Nazis show up.
She is having sex with a stranger in New York, and Donald Trump wins the US presidential election.
Engaging in a witty question and answer with herself, she takes stock of our rapidly changing times, sometimes angry, sometimes amused, sometimes afraid, and always passionate. And she tells the story of her family: Her mother, a punk in former East Germany who never had the freedom she dreamed of. Her Angolan father, who returned to his home country before she was born to start a second family. Her grandmother, whose life of obedience to party principles brought her prosperity and security but not happiness. And her twin brother, who took his own life at the age of nineteen.
