Synopsis
The film tells the true story of an Egyptian Gastarbeiter (Mohamed Hassan al-Masry) who learns the carpentry trade from a young age and travels to ply it in Germany. His inability to speak German and even English leads to discrimination. To make things worse, he is bullied by a colleague over his dark skin, and the colleague succeeds in getting Mohamed's work visa revoked. He turns to a friend he made during his work abroad, an Egyptian Greek boxing coach, who trains the young man in the sport. Mohamed also meets and falls in love with a neighbor, but her father doesn't approve of her marrying a black man. They marry anyway, and he shakes up the industry with an improvement on the lathe that makes him a wealthy businessman in Germany.
Mohamed Hassan al-Masry
The inspiration for the film was born in 1948 and was a professional boxer in Germany who won several titles and boxed for his adoptive country in Canada. He died in a tragic accident in 2014.
