In post-war Germany, Hans is repeatedly arrested and imprisoned for the crime of being gay, for which he had previously been interned in a concentration camp. With peacetime bringing no freedom to Hans, he develops an unexpected and close relationship with cellmate Viktor, who is serving a long-term sentence for murder.

Franz Rogowski, previously starring in films such as Victoria (2015), Transit (2018) and Undine (2020), delivers another superb performance in the role of Hans, consolidating his position as one of Germany's foremost actors.

This powerful prison drama about forbidden love has earned numerous awards and positive reviews with particular praise for its elegantly structured dramaturgy which follows different parallel timelines, and not least for Rogowski's solid acting performance.
