Ivie, nicknamed “Schoko” (“Choco”) by her childhood friends, is a 30-year-old woman with African roots from Leipzig, who is in search of steady employment as a teacher while working at her best friend’s solarium. One day, her half-sister Naomi from Berlin, previously unknown to her, shows up at her front door to break the news of their father’s death, urging her to travel to Africa for his funeral. As their worlds collide, Ivie begins to feel the weight of a culture she does not truly know, with a name she can no longer accept. Sarah Blaßkiewitz’s tender feature debut explores the nuances of mixed-race identity across different cities and communities in Germany, to present the complexities and contours of what it means to be a multikulti society.
