In the Velebit mountains, a former partisan witnesses the adventurous filming of the Winnetou westerns. Decades later, the same places become battlefields in the Yugoslav wars, where a group of young far-right men from Dortmund discovers how empty their ideology is. In Leipzig, meanwhile, a conference at a psychiatric clinic discusses the writings of a former patient: how did he vanish without a trace, could he foresee the future, and what links him to the globetrotter Dr May, once a patient there too? A large cast, always on the move, between the GDR, Yugoslavia and the cinema.
