It is the first day of the Islamic sacrifice feast. The brothers Memo and Harun are taken by their father on a trip to rural Brandenburg to sacrifice a sheep. But neither of the brothers is able to cut the sheep's throat. Discussions about the meaning and purpose of this custom and the sudden appearance of Memos girlfriend result in a glorious mess.
