Synopsis
Here in Germany is a lot of beautiful for my eyes, says Lilia who left her soul and her profession behind in Russia. In Germany, together with her family, she tries to find the ancient home country that they always dreamt of.
Two generations caught in the crossfire of war, three afterwards - the wheel of history keeps on turning. The documentary film “I am German just like you” leads through the past and present of four women. It tells about the dreams and the everyday life of a big family whose being foreign stays with them in different environments and today, in Germany.
