Берлин 1931 года: бордели служат художественными ателье, нацисты бесчинствуют на улицах, жизнь кипит. Днём германист Якоб Фабиан сочиняет рекламные тексты, а ночью вместе со своим другом Штефаном Лабуде курсирует по самым причудливым заведениям города. Штефан — спец в вопросах коммунизма и секса, Фабиан же этих тем избегает, ожидая торжества морали, хоть и сам в это толком не верит. Усомниться в своём ироническом фатализме его заставляет лишь Корнелия, которая становится последним лучиком надежды в его рушащейся жизни.

Weimar, 1921. The life of 20-year-old Lotte Brendel seems to be predetermined. Her father sees her as a future wife and mother on the side of a man who is to take over the parental carpentry business. But the idiosyncratic Lotte joins a group of young artists against the will of her family, applies at the Bauhaus and is accepted. The Weimar Bauhaus, under the direction of the visionary Walter Gropius, aspires not only to combine arts and crafts, but also to find the place for the "New Man". In the student Paul Seligmann Lotte finds a supporter and her great love.
