What’s the Film About? Plot Summary
The film is set in a small West German town of Mannheim. We follow the main character Luisa, a young law student who leaves her bourgeoisie household joins an Antifa commune. She joins the anti-fascist movement as right-wing anti-immigrant sentiments are on the rise and gaining political power in Germany. The anti-fascists are organizing themselves to take down the government. Luisa joins an Antifa commune called P81 through her classmate and best friend Batte. Therein, she befriends Alfa and Lenor. They begin their campaigns to prevent marches from the political right. After one of the encounters with a right-wing militia, Luisa flees but the police catch her and molest her. While in physical training sessions, she falls for Alfa and the two develop a romantic relationship. Later on, Luisa, Alfa, and others leave the group to go to Helmdorf. As they try and smash some car windows there, the residents attack them and one of them injured Luisa’s leg. They go to a dissident’s house where Luisa gets her wounds patched up. However, the story of their vandalism spreads all over the news and thereafter, the whole nation. The country now despises the movement and their image has been compromised. Afterward, the trio tracks down a man named Manfred Rohler through his cell phone that Luisa grabbed during a confrontation. They track him down to a Nazi den and it’s revealed that the bigger picture is very bleak. The communists and the Nazis seem to be together and meanwhile, Luisa convinces others to resort to violence. The police, however, arrests the P81 members, including Batte. A frustrated Luisa goes to the Nazi den and blows it up with explosives.
