October 1989. The beginning of the end of the German Democratic Republic, from the point of view of East Berlin workers at the Imbiß-Spezial, a subway snack bar in the Berlin-Lichtenberg railway station. While running between the kitchen and the bar, the employees talk about their experiences, which often differ from media reports and the flow of triumphal statements maintained by the authorities.
