West Germany in 1980. 19-year-old Robert is sick and tired of the boring lifestyle in the provinces and the smug hippies at his boarding school.

At first, however, the reality is somewhat sobering. Robert makes ends meet by working as a cleaner at a peep show. The peep show’s owner, Robert’s old pall Schwarz, introduces him to the garish Berlin nightlife in return. He spends his nights in the infamous “Risiko” nightclub listening to loud music and drinking vast amounts of alcohol. He gets to meet the stars of the scene, such as Blixa Bargeld. He also falls in love with Sanja, who works at the peep show. He plans out his financial future with Schwarz: a robbery could provide them with the financial basis for a career as dealers. Sanja also comes up with an idea that would solve both their family problems, once and for all...
