In addition to money transfers to the families back home, conversations between refugees and those left behind, between lovers and between siblings who have not seen each other for years, over a distance of thousands of kilometers, are held in the shop's telephone booths . In between there are also contacts among customers. People from different nations come together in the Call Shop, so you can hear the most varied of languages and be introduced to the most varied of life stories .
For example in those of the shy angels who are doing an apprenticeship and hoping to ease their homesickness for Togo over the phone. Mimi, on the other hand, has a secret affair with a man in Italy, she comes to the shop to talk to him on the phone and to ask her best friend in Japan for advice.

reception
Martin Thomson wrote in the daily Die Presse : “After hanging up, the camera often pauses in front of people's empty expressions. What has been said seems to reverberate in them. Tears flow. It didn't work: You have to get back to everyday life and come to terms with staying lonely and feeling strange. Taking these borderline states in the emotional life of immigrants seriously and exploring them instead of dismissing them as sentimental trivialities is a great achievement of Kusturica. "
Alexandra Seibel said in the daily newspaper Kurier that Kusturica would open up a whole world and its variety of longings, identities and lost homes in her one-room film. “Instead of preaching multiculturalism, she unfolds little vignettes that are brought to bloom in Neulerchenfelderstrasse. And time and again the camera finds new perspectives to cast its gaze. "
