Германия 70-х. Радикально настроенные потомки бывших нацистов, ведомые Андреасом Баадером, бывшей журналисткой Ульрике Майнхоф и Гудрун Энсслин, борятся против того, что они называют лицом фашизма: против политики США во Вьетнаме, на Ближнем Востоке и в странах третьего мира, поддерживаемой ключевыми фигурами от немецкой политики, юриспруденции и индустрии. Баадер, Майнхоф и Энсслин создают фракцию "Красная Армия" и объявляют войну ФРГ. Разгорается кровавая террористическая кампания - множество убитых и раненых. Человек, не принимающий их деяния, но все же пытающийся их понять, — руководитель уголовной полиции Хорст Херольд. Несмотря на богатый послужной список и множество раскрытых дел, Херольду становится ясно, что в одиночку полиция не в силах противостоять волне насилия.

It is claimed that property destruction during the Watts riots in the United States in 1965 influenced the practical and ideological approach of the RAF founders. As for changing the world, they failed. All they achieved was to make West Germany a less tolerant, more paranoid society than it had been before.
