The 'princesses' of the title are a gang of four young women, living in the public housing slums of a dismal West German suburb: Katharina, recently relocated from Russia; Yvonne, who's about to go to prison for almost beating another girl to death; perverse, sexually aggressive Jenny; and Mandy, a creepily precocious 11-year-old. It's the dead space between Christmas and New Year's Eve, and the girls are trying to make the most of Yvonne's last day of freedom: the following morning, she must report to jail. But Yvonne, unpredictable to the last, has other plans... Depicting its dead-end setting with discomfiting fidelity, lit by flashes of sudden, surreal invention (like the sound of fireworks, constantly exploding from the tenement balconies), this is a powerful, harrowing drama about friendship, loyalty and betrayal.

It's between Christmas and New Year's Eve in a typical West German suburb: Christmas lights still adorn the dull apartment blocks, cheap motels and discount markets as premature fireworks echo throughout this industrial wasteland. Eighteen-year-old Katharina, who has re-settled from Russia to Germany, spends her time with Yvonne and the rest of the gang. Katharina and the other girls – desperate Yvonne, freaky Jenny who is obsessed with all kinds of sexual perversions, and 11-year-old overly sexualized Mandy – roam around out in the cold. Tomorrow, Yvonne, the gang's leader, has to go to prison for nearly beating a young woman to death. The friends try to make the best out of their last day together. But their efforts to have fun fail amongst their bleak surroundings.
