Dot is wealthy, Anton is poor\u2014yet the two are connected by a deep friendship<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The story of the inseparable duo takes place in Berlin in the 1930s.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Although Dot lives in a beautiful, <\/span>spacious<\/span> apartment and her family have both a cook and a nanny, she is anything but snooty. Anton, in contrast to Dot, <\/span>lives in humble circumstances<\/span>. <\/span>Beyond attending<\/span> school, he has to <\/span>attend to<\/span> all the household chores as well as earn money so that he and his <\/span>ailing<\/span> mother can make ends meet. One night, the two meet on the Weidendammer Bridge, where they are both begging, but for very different reasons: Anton to survive, and Dot to help <\/span>her<\/span> nanny.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite <\/span>all the differences in their lives<\/span>, Dot and Anton become best friends. She is always ready to help him, but Anton <\/span>never<\/span> lets Dot down, either. Together, they form an unbeatable team.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
