    • Synopsis
    • On account of an ambiguous event,
      entrances and exits into a Berlin
      courtyard are blocked for the time
      being. Having received no information
      from the police over this state
      of emergency, residents of the buildings
      opening to this
      courtyard, begin
      to speculate. First
      they assume that
      there is a bomb
      planted right outside
      the door, then
      another rumour
      about a criminal hiding in the courtyard
      quickly spreads. This state of
      crisis and insecurity in which every
      single person is seen as a potential
      suspect by the others, not only
      changes the course of daily life but
      also ignites human relationships.
      Among the neighbours who’ve been
      sharing the same building for many
      years without ever acquainting with
      each other, insecurities start to pump
      fear. Suspicion takes over panic, prejudices
      bring polarization and another
      question appears… Is the real danger
      coming from inside or outside?
