East Berlin, late 1970s. Thomas is a toolmaker apprentice with a working-class background and Michael is a high school student from an educated middle-class family. They meet one night at a club and quickly bond over their desire to rebel against their fathers, teachers and supervisors in a paternalistic society that does not let young people follow their own paths and dreams. When Thomas decides to break the rules by squatting in a vacant apartment and distributing protest flyers, no one seems to care—except for the Stasi.
