A fragmented, intellectually demanding portrait of a nation gripped by political terror and existential anxiety, assembled from nine interlocking perspectives on a moment of national crisis.
Nine fictitious documentaries and films reflect the mood of late 1970s Germany, particularly the two-month period in 1977 when a businessman was kidnapped by the RAF (Red Army Faction). The kidnap had been made to orchestrate the release of the original leaders of the RAF, aka the Baader-Meinhof.
