14-year-old Hanna and her mother Mounira are on vacation with her grandfather in Cairo . There she buys a German Karl May book that contains mysterious entries. When she discovers that her mother has a relationship with the Egyptian Abdel Rahman , who is also interested in the book, Hanna travels back to her father in Berlin on her own . Together with her friends Bernd and Oliver, she manages to decipher the secret message in the book: A treasure is said to be hidden in the cellar of a house on the Berlin Wall .

The three friends begin to explore the dilapidated house and discover that the basement, where they suspect the treasure, is located directly under the Berlin death strip. The exact location is - as it is in the book - recorded on a map, but unfortunately Hanna only owns half of it; the other has her Egyptian friend Hassan , who lives in Cairo. It soon becomes clear that the search is pointless without the second half of the treasure map. With a trick, Hanna manages to persuade her mother to travel to Egypt again.

With the complete plan, Hanna, Bernd and Oliver finally find two chests which, in addition to other old Karl May books, also contain real Indian jewelry, lithographs and other valuable items. The police, who had been watching the demolished house for a long time, discovered the box with the Indian things and temporarily confiscated it. Fortunately, the children still have the second chest that nobody knows about. You can put them in the basement of Bernd's house without being noticed. Nevertheless, her treasure is constantly threatened by Abdel Rahman, who is looking for it himself, and the curious caretaker Patschke .

Selling a lithograph earns the three friends a check for a large sum, but they have to find a way to cash it first. An old lady, Feodora Pleschka , turns out to be a savior in times of need. Now Hanna, Bernd and Oliver can finally buy everything they have always dreamed of. But when Grandma Pleschka dies, they not only lose their money and their toys, but also the only adult they can trust.

In an unusual way, the children find a new person they can trust, the trained pedagogue Klara Petrovsky . She goes sailing and the disco with the children and is always open to their concerns. When the caretaker Patschke had Bernd's cellar cleared, she offered them her apartment as a place to hide the treasure chest. But one day Hanna, Bernd and Oliver find news that “Klärchen” has gone away. Since there are brochures for expensive long-haul trips in her apartment and the valuable jewelry has disappeared from the chest, it seems clear that she has exploited the children's trust to get the treasure.

In the meantime, a lot has happened in Hanna's family: Mother Mounira has moved to Egypt, and father Paul has fallen in love with Oliver's mother. Hanna decides to take her future brother Oliver on a visit to Cairo. There there is a heated argument between Hanna and Mounira, who wants to keep her daughter with her in Cairo. Oliver reveals the secret of the treasure, which causes a lot of excitement.

Back in Berlin, a decision will be made about the division of the valuables. To the delight of the children it turns out that this is not due to Abdel Rahman - as feared - but to them. Last but not least, a big misunderstanding clears up: Klärchen brings back the jewelry that she had only hidden to protect from the adults.
