Description
On her eighteenth birthday, Hilde leaves her orphanage in 1930s Berlin, and heads out into the world to discover her place in it. But finding a job is hard, at least until she stumbles into Cǎf Lila, a vibrant cabaret full of expressive customers. Rosa, one of the clubs waitresses and performers, immediately takes Hilde under her wing. As the cǎf denizens slowly embrace Hilde, and she embraces them in turn, she discovers her voice and her own blossoming feelings for Rosa. But Berlin is in turmoil. Between the elections, protests in the streets, worsening antisemitism and anti-homosexual sentiment, and the beginning seeds of unrest in Cǎf Lila itself, Hilde will have to decide whats best for her future . . . and what it means to love a place on the cusp of war.
