Snow On New Years Eve

"This is the 31st of December, 1999. It is exactly 12 o′clock in the old, new German capital - the city of madmen, dreamers, and lovers. My city". Zippo (Hannes Jaenicke), a lovesick radio presenter, calls on his listeners to make the last night of the century into a night of little miracles. They are to have realised their good resolutions by midnight. Ex-convict Toto (Juergen Tarrach) wants to follow the straight and narrow - and become the best bus-driver in Berlin. But two passengers are still seated in his doubledecker at the end of the line: the pregnant Russian girl Natalia (Tamara Simunovic), who′s looking for the father of her child, and a dead Nigerian drug courier.

Toto and Natalia discover an enormous consignment of cocaine in the dead man′s suitcase. Together with his mates (André Hennicke and Niels Bruno Schmidt), Toto′s fellow convict Frank (Dieter Landuris) has picked this night to plan the deal of the century where a million Marks is set to change owners.And the jealous Irishman Rory (Eric Burdon) wants to kill his wife Carola (Barbara Rudnik) in a spectacular manner before midnight. Everything about this night of little miracles has Zippo at the centre...
