How does Michael Brandt spend the day before his date? How does anyone spend a day in B., a provincial town in western Germany? Nightmare, delusion or simply a mature community? Frank Stremmer really wants to come back. Jan Bargfrede is supposed to design furniture but prefers talking to his bicycles, and Marion wonders how long she can stand him. Someone runs a starred restaurant, Marxist courier services operate, and Detective Sergeant Günter Hilter investigates privately, without success. With fury and wit, a day and a night in the small-town fug, under a difficult political sky, and with the eternal wind.
