action
Paula Friedrich lands at Hanoi Airport , where she has applied for a job as a sous-cook in a luxury hotel. On site, the passport scanner at the airport sends the signal that she has already entered Vietnam. She is forced to hand over her passport to them for the time being. This means that she cannot appear in time for her interview. When she is the victim of a robbery and sustains injuries, Paula comes to the hospital, where she is treated by the German-Vietnamese doctor Danh Cao, whom she finds very personable. After her release, she returns to her hotel, where she tells her lawyer Jan Kopetzki that passport control may have recognized her twin sister Marie, who, like her, was given up for adoption by the GDR authorities after the birth. In order to fully clear up the misunderstanding, Kopetzki advises Paula to visit her sister, but she does not want to have anything to do with her.
