Walter is a man in his late 50s for whom reality is somehow slipping away. In GDR times he was the director of an industrial collective, but now his life's work is a ghostly ruin. Walter is stunned by a world that has discarded him - and an inner rampage has begun.

With Hilmar Thate as Walter, Cornelia Schmaus as Sylvia, Henriette Heinze as Gina, and Dirk Borchardt as Rene.

"Andreas Kleinert's calm yet powerful cinematography portrays not only the lack of perspective and stagnation of the dismantled East, but also the madness of those castrated of their power. Walter's violent acts take on a life of their own and soon become indistinguishable from conventional crime." (Retrospektive „Deutschland, revisited")
