Storyline
They used to make music together in the GDR and were best friends. Then one of them became famous and the other was arrested. Decades later, the latter wants justice and accuses his successful colleague of spying on him and betraying his escape plans to the Stasi. The dramatic night-time conversation ends disastrously. After a concert, successful pop singer Marco Hoffmann's past catches up with him: his ex-bandmate Wolle wants to talk to him. The two had a rock band in the GDR - but while Marco was making a career for himself, Wolle ended up in prison after a failed escape attempt. Even after being ransomed to the West and the collapse of the GDR, Wolle couldn't get a leg on the ground. He suspected Marco of having spied on him as an IM. Wolle believes he has found clear evidence in his Stasi file. But Marco denies everything.
