The Weimar Republic: three people of different ages and life experiences who just happened to end up together.
Our contemporaries in Germany, 1927.
A Russian businessman, a former official of no small rank, dreams of standing alongside the Rothschilds, Morgans, and Rockefellers. At any cost!
A Russian gangster with the canonical biography of “sportsman—army—zone” doesn’t really know what he wants, but stories about his heroic grandfather—an intercommunist—won’t let him go.
A Russian student… and here it gets complicated. A “Russian German” with not a drop of Russian blood, a trainee at the German BfV, the federal office for the protection of the constitution. His duty is to pull Germany out of the looming world slaughter… but how, that question isn’t the simplest. An unfinished student, a boy-trainee… Each has their own interests, their own vision of the future—and not the slightest reason to trust one another.
