In Berlin, sooner or later, I will discover, to my true delight, what the world wants from me and what I myself want from it,” wrote Robert Walser in 1915, when he had already left Berlin behind and realized that the world wanted nothing from him and that he, too, was not allowed to want anything from it.

Marti is new to Berlin and looking for a job. He wants to get to know himself and his abilities and put them to use in a fulfilling job. An employment agency accidentally assigns him two jobs at the same time. However, out of shyness, he does not correct the mistake and thus finds himself working during the day as an assistant to a volatile engineer who lives in a villa on Alexanderplatz, and at night as an assistant to an ambitious director who is rehearsing an opera adaptation of The Days of the Commune in a basement. Hopefully, he ties his identity and self-confidence to his assistant work, the actual execution of which, however, remains astonishingly unclear.
