Statist? Ich bin die wahre Hauptrolle!

A starving peasant stumbles onto a film set and is mistaken for an extra. He can't read, but his raw honesty outshines every actor there. He turns the script into his real life, learning to write, breaking land, and feeding his family. From refugee to rooted man, he rewrites his own fate. When the cameras stop, can the greatest role he ever played be simply himself?
