Paula’s emotional world turns topsy-turvy when she finds out she has a twin sister. This was not how Paula imagined her fresh start in Vietnam would be: Shortly after she arrives at the airport, her passport is confiscated. The manager of the luxury hotel where she wanted to apply as a cook has no time for her, and on top of everything else, she suffers a fall when her handbag is stolen. Only the German-Vietnamese doctor Danh Cao, who sees to her injuries at the hospital, manages to put a smile on her face. But back at the hotel, the next surprise awaits: Paula finds out from a German lawyer that she has a twin sister, who apparently lives in Vietnam.
