The Players<\/em> is a parable about play instinct and freedom. It is a portrait of the Berlin night and its characters. Paul’s passion is poker. He regularly plays in backroom rounds of Turkish caf\u00e9s and thus finances his business studies. Only in the game does he feel truly free. <\/span>Fatih was also a player. But “addiction isn\u2019t compatible with a job and family”. He now drives a taxi and enjoys the job. After a very successful poker night, Paul crosses paths with Fatih as one of his midnight passengers. Paul’s fantasies of happiness and freedom awaken Fatih\u2019s repressed yearnings and they make a bet that will forever change one of their lives.<\/span><\/p>\n
