Marc Borgman (Koffler), a young police officer, is on a training course for the riot control unit. He is struggling at the police academy, being somewhat behind his peers in his physical training. Cocky and self-assured, Marc does not initially get along with his roommate at the academy, Kay Engel (Riemelt). They have a physical confrontation during a training exercise, but afterwards Marc apologizes for his aggressive behavior and they become friends. The two begin jogging together regularly, and during one jog, Kay kisses Marc as they share a cigarette, though he tells him that it was merely a joke. A surprised Marc is reluctant to jog again, but on Kay's insistence he goes on a run alone; Kay catches up to him. Despite Marc's initial rebuffs, Kay kisses him and gives him a handjob. Though Marc initially accepts the advances, he is overcome with confusion and runs away. Though he tries to avoid Kay, the latter is transferred into his police unit to fill a vacancy and Marc finds it difficult to ignore him. Eventually Kay shows up with a colleague to a bowling alley where Marc and his family are having a game, and is introduced to Bettina, Marc's pregnant longtime girlfriend; Bettina has just moved with Marc to a house near Marc's parents in order to start their family.

1944. Varsovie est sous domination nazie. Le 1er août, alors que les troupes soviétiques se rapprochent, la ville entière se soulève : c'est l'insurrection. La jeunesse polonaise rejoint alors les rangs de la Résistance, la fleur au fusil, pour ce qu'elle pense être un combat gagné d'avance qui ne devrait guère excéder trois jours. Parmi les révolutionnaires se trouvent Stefan et sa bande, issus pour la plupart de la bourgeoise varsovienne : ils sont inexpérimentés, idéalistes et candides. Comme tant d'autres jeunes, ils rêvent de liberté et d'héroïsme. L'horreur de la guerre leur réserve un destin beaucoup plus tragique.

Jo is a twenty-five-year-old music composer. He has come over from Berlin and wants to be part of the nascent electronic music revolution, ideally by getting a job first as a DJ in the new nightclub on the island, Amnesia. Martha has been living alone in her house facing the sea for forty years. One night Jo knocks on her door. Her solitude intrigues him. They become friends even as the mysteries around her accumulate: that cello in the corner she refuses to play, the German language she refuses to speak... Slowly, they enter into a relationship that will challenge and change both of them.
