The film follows four families, with different nationalities (French, German, Russian and American) but with the same passion for music, from the 1930s to the 1980s. The various story lines cross each other time and again in different places and times, with their own theme scores that evolve as time passes.

Along the Venetian seaside, on the morning of September 8, 1943, Alberto Innocenzi, junior NCO of the Royal Italian Army is shocked when (in response to the separate surrender signed by the Badoglio government in Cassibile) the former allies of the Wehrmacht surround and take by storm the base where he's stationed. Innocenzi, along with some disbanded soldiers, manages to distance the German troops and is thoroughly shocked when, contrary to his plan of finding a higher echelon to which to report, most of the men accept the fact that the war is over for them and "everybody should just go home".

Rome, 8 septembre 1943 : Danilo, étudiant à l'université, échappe à l'enrôlement pendant que son ami Michele, un jeune comptable craintif, qui était déjà dans un train en direction du Nord avec d'autres employés de son ministère, parvient à retourner à Rome, où il a laissé sa fiancée Ida. Vaincu par la peur, toutefois, il se joint à Danilo pour chercher à dépasser la Ligne gothique. Par hasard, ils font la connaissance de Gino (Tomás Milián), qui se joint à eux quand le tramway des Châteaux sur lequel ils voyagent est arrêté par les Allemands. Tous les trois se réfugient dans une cave où se cache un groupe de soldats déserteurs, commandés par Orlando (Renato Salvatori). Ils sont ensuite rejoints par le partisan Edoardo (Romolo Valli), qui leur donne la charge de faire sauter un pont utilisé pour ravitailler les troupes allemandes. Le groupe se procure l'explosif nécessaire au sabotage mais se disperse en apprenant la capture d'Edoardo par les Allemands. Danilo, Michele et Gino retournent à Rome, où ils apprennent la mort d'Edoardo, qui a confié à ses camarades le soin d'accomplir le sabotage. Profondément mûris, les trois jeunes protagonistes décident de mener à terme la mission : ayant rejoint Orlando, ils réussiront à faire sauter le pont. Dans l'opération, Michele perdra la vie, rachetant par un geste de véritable héros une vie vécue dans la terreur.

The film attempts to depict the harsh reality of the process inside the Auschwitz concentration camp by using brutal imagery. Book-ended by documentary footage as well as interviews with German teenagers about what they know about the Holocaust, Boll's intention is to show viewers just how depraved and sadistic life in the camp was.

There are five cameras — each with its own story. When his fourth son, Gibreel, is born in 2005, self-taught cameraman Emad Burnat, a Palestinian villager, gets his first camera. At the same time in his village of Bil’in, the Israelis begin bulldozing village olive groves to build a barrier to separate Bil'in from the Jewish Settlement Modi'in Illit. The barrier's route cuts off 60% of Bil'in farmland and the villagers resist this seizure of more of their land by the settlers.
