The ex-detective Alex Bronner (Jürgen Prochnow), who was suspended from duty because of an offense, now earns his living as a pub owner. The restaurant belongs to the freight forwarder and quarry owner Naumann (Günther-Maria Halmer), who, as it turns out, is the head of a neo-Nazi organization. In his huge quarry he has a combat group trained with stolen Bundeswehr weapons. When a friend of mine, a former police colleague, dies under mysterious circumstances, there are traces of evidence in the area around Bronner's bar. This now begins to determine privately. He discovers that Naumann is planning to set up a "National People's Party", that it will be financed by an Arab patron, that a synagogue is to be bombed and that his own stepdaughter (Anja Kling) is involved in all of these machinations .
Screenwriter Robert Stromberger tells the political crime thriller from different perspectives, whereby the plot is based on real references.
