Portrait of the spokesman of the student movement and extra-parliamentary opposition Rudi Dutschke, who died on December 24, 1979 from the late effects of an assassination attempt. The film is not limited to the mere biography of the extra-parliamentary politician, but also depicts the political environment as well as the late effects of the student movement. In retrospect, it condenses into a picture of a highly politicized society that had not yet begun its retreat into the private sphere.

The film consists of four parts: Part 1 shows the founding of a new working group of the "Critical University" at the FU Berlin. Participants are students, workers, pupils, assistants and a university lecturer. The working group is founded to study the problems of educational advertising. Part 2 shows the campaign "Expropriate Springer"; the university administration of the FU Berlin refuses the rooms. The Springer Hearing takes place after all. Part 3 describes the Vietnam Congress, shows Dutschke's speech and a first approach to a counter-demonstration against the students. Part 4 answers Wolfgang Lefevre's questions about the next goals of the SDS.

Giefer documents the International Vietnam Congress, which took place on February 17 and 18, 1968 in the Audimax of the Technical University of Berlin (TU). With his photographs of the counter-demonstration, which was organized on 21 February 1968 under the slogan "Berlin stands for freedom and peace" on John-F.-Kennedy-Platz in Berlin-Schöneberg, Giefer also shows the counter-movement.

A wildly anarchic satire of guerrilla terrorism in which a band of leftist radicals inadvertently become puppets of the West German government, which uses them to justify its authoritarian policies.
