Berlin, 1989. The Wall comes down. But no one knows if the revolution will continue to remain peaceful. Falk Kupfer is an officer in the Ministry for State Security (Stasi) and is ready to do all it takes to preserve the power of the SED, East Germany’s ruling party. General Hans Kupfer, on the other hand, is opposed to any form of escalation. Martin Kupfer is trying to get his daughter Anna back. Dunja Haußmann, a singer, and Falk‘s wife Vera want to make the country democratic. But dark secrets catch up with them, too.
