Writer and filmmaker Yusuf Yesilöz presents a vivid portrait about the successful integration of Güli Dogan, who moved to Switzerland from Turkey at the age of nine. The film documents Dogan, now 35, at work in the Winterthur registry office, during her everyday life with her daughters and husband, with her Swiss girlfriends and on visits to older, very traditionbound fellow countryfolk. But Güli Dogan's palpable longing for the mountain village of her childhood is a source of tension for her. Therefore, she tries to teach her own children about their new home's culture and hopes to introduce them to her own country's traditions at a later point. Besides these differents worlds, the film tells an extraordinary tale of marriage and relationships.
