A sign hangs around his neck with the words: I was too cowardly to fight for Germany. Keller was the senior boss of a large Berlin construction company, his current largest project was the construction of a documentation center on the Shoah in Israel. A right-wing assassination attempt? Much seems to speak for it. But there is another lead. A youth photo of the crime victim Klaus and his brother Gert has disappeared from the dead man's apartment. Does the murder have anything to do with the two brothers? Economic miracle child and winner of the turnaround is one - Stasimajor, SED functionary and loser is the other. Two post-war routes that diverged with the division of Germany and could not reunite even after '89. Nina Rubin and Robert Karow ask why and delve into a complex family history in which the generation of sons also plays an important role. Michael Keller runs his father's construction company and Gert's son Fredo is the owner of a printing company in Pankow. Moritz, Klaus' grandson, recorded a video of his beloved grandfather on the occasion of the birthday party - the last document from Klaus Keller - his last words. Moritz 'attractive friend Ruth, politically committed student and waitress in Klaus Keller's regular restaurant, knows the family well. Can their internals help Karow advance the investigation? Rubin and Karow encounter the German past and its consequences and in the end are faced with a crime of which they had no idea. Written by ARD Das Erste See less
