Synopsis
The GDR, early 1970s. The engineer Franz Walter receives a tempting offer from the HVA, the foreign intelligence service of the GDR. As an agent, he is supposed to help prepare the GDR for the 1974 Football World Cup, which takes place in the FRG. In return, he is offered a professorship. Franz, who had already been active as an unofficial employee for the Stasi since 1967, accepts the offer. Together with his colleague Dirk, he is sent abroad to the West. Over time, however, Franz's discomfort about the excessive espionage activities and his questionable missions grows. He begins to doubt the system and withdraws more and more. Not even his wife Corina manages to get through to him. Franz would love to disappear. But the secret service does not let him out of their clutches. Finally Franz is arrested and charged with treason...
