A Journalist of Jewish descent in Berlin feels that he is a loser of the political changes in Germany after 1989. When his mother dies, he has to meet his brother to whom he has not talked for years and to meet all his other family members. But during the preparations for the funeral he plays a snooker-cup for paying his debts with the money for the victory, and many other things mixes up. 首次打破政治禁忌，在德国国内犹太裔与其他民族关系还颇为微妙的情况下，大开犹太人和德国人的玩笑。40年前，犹太人祖克的妈妈带着他的兄弟祖可曼逃到西德，从此一堵柏林墙将两兄弟分隔东西。柏林墙倒了、他们的妈妈死了之后，两兄弟40年来才有机会重逢，并且根据母亲的遗愿他们要重归于好骨肉相认才能继承遗产。于是祖克则要重新熟悉犹太生活，重新找回真正的自己。可是已经在东德生活多年，他几乎已经背弃了犹太式的生活，重拾起来未免笑料百出。
