The film starts when a male teacher comes to the grey classroom. The headmaster says "good morning" and announced a message that there will be ongoing changes in the school, and said that the students' teachers will advise them further. The teacher tells the children that two plus two equals five. He told the children to be silent, otherwise to have order in the classroom. The teacher writes 2 + 2 = 5 on the chalkboard and tells the children to repeat after him, in order to know. A student asked the teacher that two plus two is four, then the teacher said that two plus two was actually five, and told him to sit down and be quiet. The teacher told them to put their notebooks out to write 2 + 2 = 5. While the teacher was saying the expression, another student was saying that two plus two was four.

Automne allemand 1977, la Fraction armée rouge (RAF) terrorise la République fédérale d’Allemagne pour libérer ses figures historiques. Deux célébrations de funérailles à deux jours d'intervalle à Stuttgart ponctuent le récit. La première est l'enterrement du patron des patrons, exécuté par les terroristes de la RAF après la nuit de la mort de leurs leaders retrouvés suicidés dans leurs cellules de Stammheim quelques heures après l'annonce de la libération des otages du détournement du Landshut. La seconde est l'enterrement des suicidés de Stammheim sous haute surveillance policière. Dix réalisateurs du nouveau cinéma allemand témoignent de cette accélération des événements en mettant en scène des fictions et courts documentaires historiques pour restituer le climat de terreur quotidienne inspirée par la RAF tout en s'interrogeant sur la pression étatique nécessaire à la traque de terroristes dans un pays démocratique.
