The Federal Republic of Germany in the 1970s. Through a cheerful anarchy, Rita Vogt becomes involved in terrorism, seduced by her sense of justice and her love for Andi. When she realizes the failure of the movement, she goes into hiding in East Germany. With the help of the state security, personified in Erwin Hull, she starts a new existence there under another name. Rita leads, so to speak, the normal life of the working class. She wants to settle down, while her young colleague Tatjana wants to leave for the West. A friendship develops between them, only to be abruptly ended by a wanted notice on West German television. Rita must go into hiding again. With a new name in a new city, she seems to have more luck. On vacation, Rita meets the student Jochen. He wants to take her to Moscow. But then Rita is confronted with her past; it is the year 1989 - the wall falls, the GDR ceases to exist...
