Le propriétaire terrien Philipp Klapproth, qui finance les études de médecine de son neveu Peter Klapproth, reçoit un jour une lettre dans laquelle il demande 20 000 marks à son oncle. Peter veut, écrit-il, investir cet argent dans un hôpital psychiatrique. En vérité, le neveu a des plans très différents : il ne peut ni voir le sang, ni n'a jamais étudié la médecine ; au lieu de cela, lui et son ami musicien Tommy consacrent leurs vies à leur groupe. Avec l'argent de l'oncle, rien ne s'opposerait à avoir leur propre local de répétition.
