Teleportation
Frederike and Fabian, both 10 years old, secretly plan an experiment. They want to beam away their friend Jonathan, also 10 years old. The experiment goes wrong and instead of the boy, suddenly all the people in the village have disappeared. The school is also completely empty.
While searching for the causes, they discover images on television of people climbing up the Berlin Wall and driving their Trabbis toward the border. The children realize that they have accidentally beamed all the people to West Berlin. They must repeat the experiment to save their parents and neighbors. An adventurous retelling of the events of November 9, 1989.
