Was sie teilen
Theyboth carry the foreign gem, playful, tender mood tags, and they sit in Adventure / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Die Abenteuer des Prinzen Achmed, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Im Juli is
Daniel’s life as a physics teacher gets some unplanned motion when he chases a Turkish girl named Melek to Istanbul; along the way he picks up his friend Juli, who’s been nursing a crush. The three crisscross Europe in a borrowed car, swapping destinations and confessions. A road movie that forgets to brake for clichés.
