KROKO

Synopsis

She’s blond, she’s tough, and she’s untouchable: the femme fatale of Berlin-Wedding’s backstreets. Coolness weighs heavily on Kroko’s eyelids. It could be mis-taken for boredom – if it weren’t for the edge in her voice and her ice-cold readiness to walk right over anybody who stands in her way… She’s just as fierce when she’s out to have fun, but one of her joy rides ends in a crash and the juvenile court condemns her to do welfare work in a housing project for disabled people – a preposterous punish-ment for a girl like her, she thinks. But the “normalos” she lives with aren’t all that thrill-ing either, and it seems as if Kroko discovers something in the “spasties” she’s been missing in her everyday life…
