In 'Gegen die Wand' Cahit (Birol Ünel), a 40-something male from Mersin in Turkey has removed everything Turkish from his life. He has become an alcoholic drug addict and at the start of the movie wants to end it all. Sibel (Sibel Kekilli) a 20-something female from Hamburg wishes to please her Turkish parents yet yearns for freedom. She has had her nose broken by her brother for being seen holding hands with a boy and yet she can not break her mother's heart and run away. She too attempts suicide and she first approaches Cahit there at the Hospital. Sibel asks Cahit to marry her, as she believes this to be the way out of her parent's house. She promises Cahit that their relationship will be like roommates, not like a married couple. The film follows Sibel and Cahit as they get married, become closer and eventually fall in love. Cahit then accidentally kills one of Sibel's lovers and is sent to jail. Sibel moves to Turkey where she gets a job as a domestic aid with the help of her sister. After serving his sentence, Cahit is released from jail and he immediately sets off for Istanbul to find her. A German-Turkish movie by Fatih Akin.
