Alemania, 1943. Los nazis se proponen eliminar definitivamente a todos los judíos de Berlín. Más de 70.000 ya han sido deportados. En abril de 1943 sale de la estación de Grunewald hacia Auschwitz un tren con 688 judíos. Durante seis días, los pasajeros tendrán que sufrir calor, hambre y sed. En su desesperación, algunos intentan huir; entre ellos, Henry (Gedeon Burkhard), Lea (Lale Yavas) y Ruth (Sibel Kekilli). Pero el tiempo apremia porque Auschwitz está cada vez más cerca.
Los tripulantes de la nave estelar Surprise son requeridos por el alto mando terrestre, liderado por la princesa Metapha, para viajar atrás en el tiempo y cambiar el pasado para así prevenir la invasión de las tropas marcianas del malvado Regulator Rogul y su sicario, el asmático Lord Jens Maul.
Etje, a chic young woman who likes to have fine jewelry, is involved in an insurance fraud. In return, her partner and life partner Jan promised her two million marks and a life in the Caribbean if she got Paul to stick to her heels. But what Etje doesn't know is also hired by Jan. But Jan lured Etje into a trap so that she could use her traces in his production. A sophisticated plan: Paul watches Etje while she has dinner with Jan. He shows his visitor the safe in which his wife keeps her diamonds and then tries to rape her. When Paul hears gunshots, he rushes to the villa: Etje shot Jan. Paul and Etje flee with the diamonds. But they are only part of a perfect plan ...
Two people love each other when they know they should not. Their parents' and friends' pleas, their social backgrounds and reputation, their careers; everything is used to make them give each other up. Flattery, lies and threats finally drive Frank to despair and Karin to treason. But it is not due to their parents' hatred, nor to any greed for inherited wealth. Rather, the mere conjecture expressed by the authorities is enough to set off a merciless mechanism.
