The convicted criminal Andre Tomczyk (Nils Schulz) tries to become a better person. He is supported by his doctor and friend Dr. Lengert (Klaus Meile). However, when Dr. Lengert (Klaus Meile) is killed by a former patient, Elon Burkner (Jakob Tögel), out of revenge, suspicion quickly falls on Andre Tomczyk (Nils Schulz).
Tomczyk's attempt to convince the commissioners (Michael Peter Fischer and Madeleine Maßmann) that he is not to blame for the death of his friend is prevented by the perfidious plan of the actual perpetrator Elon Burkner (Jakob Tögel).
