This documentary is about Istanbul's unique double decker Galata bridge. A strange two-story construction with shops and restaurants. This film tells the stories of the people who work there for whom the is bridge home and a symbol of hope.

The Galata bridge in Istanbul is a cosmos of its own. Between shops, restaurants and streams of tourists we meet people who spend their work days on the bridge. Among these are Kemal, a restaurant owner; Gaffur and Erkan, kitchen helpers who work at the rival restaurant next door; paper recyclers Bayram and Erdogan; Sadiye, who after her husband´s death comes to the bridge every day to fish; and Ömer, the bridge's manager and secret “King” of the bridge.

Renowned media artist Florian Thalhofer has developed non-linear forms of storytelling in audiovisual media over the past decade. For this cross-media project he teamed up with Turkish filmmaker Berke Baş.
