Sauerland, autumn 1995: In the middle of the forest on the Wilzenberg, a walker finds the body of high school graduate Sonja Risse. However, the fact that the killer left a music box with the lullaby "Hush Little Baby" at the crime scene does not lead to a clear solving. 25 years later, the investigative journalist Stefanie Schneider, known as "Mütze", made a surprising discovery in Cologne. In a disused multi-storey car park, she films an undressed corpse of a man with a music box running next to it! When her colleague Jan Römer, who reported on the spectacular Sonja case as a young journalist in 1995, recognizes the melody from back then, he immediately believes there is a connection. He goes to Wilzenberg with his ambitious colleague to interview Sonja's mother Maria, her former teacher Waldheim and her best friends. The more the journalists compile, the clearer the contradictions and gaps that the investigators should have noticed at the time.

Alemania, principios del XVI. Martín Lutero fue un monje agustino que provocó un cisma dentro de la Cristiandad. En el monasterio, una detenida y reflexiva lectura de la Biblia, lo lleva replantearse algunas cuestiones. En 1517, cuelga en la puerta de la iglesia de Wittenberg sus 95 tesis, que, además de negar algunos dogmas, condenaban las bulas de indulgencia que la Iglesia vendía para recaudar fondos para la construcción de la Basílica de San Pedro del Vaticano. Llevado ante la Dieta Imperial de Wörms, Lutero se niega a retractarse, a menos que puedan probar, basándose en la Biblia, que sus tesis son falsas. A continuación es acusado de herejía y excomulgado por el Papa León X. En esta situación se ve obligado a escapar y vive como un proscrito mientras traduce el Nuevo Testamento del latín al alemán. La postura desafiante de Lutero anima a los campesinos a rebelarse contra los señores y a quemar iglesias. (FILMAFFINITY)
