After Maren's brother is murdered, the young woman is completely shaken. Because the police only deal with the case in a routine manner and have no results to show for it, she sets about investigating the case herself. But in doing so, she realizes that she may be tangling with powerful people whose influence extends into her immediate surroundings. She believes that the nuclear waste mafia is behind her brother's death and that her own husband Mehdi is one of the criminals. Maren no longer knows who to trust. She feels like she is being watched every step of the way and even her best friend Iris doesn't believe a word she says. Little by little, Maren has to ask herself whether her family is in grave danger or whether she herself is the one in danger...

The accident during an air show in Ramstein in the summer of 1988 is one of the greatest tragedies in German post-war history. Against the backdrop of the momentous collision of two aerobatic planes on "Open Day" at the American air base, this film tells the story of four families in fictionalized form - they are visitors to the air show who lost their loved ones in the horrific inferno, and an emergency doctor who cannot forget the sight of the dead and injured. They all suffer from post-traumatic stress syndrome. Years after the disaster, they finally have the opportunity to share their experiences and come to terms with the trauma in a specially founded aftercare group. Meanwhile, a duo of investigators commissioned by the German Federal Ministry investigates the background to the air accident and uncovers massive failures in safety precautions and rescue measures.
