this movie took place in germany which seemed to look pretty similar to the united states. the culture seemed to b pretty average in what us americans would consider normal. although the vehicles looked a bit different for example the ambulance that is in the movie doesnt look anything like our ambulances. so aside from the language and the minor little differences germany is pretty similar to the US.
