A sedate little town somewhere in Germany: on his day off police officer Arved Minks (Tobias Oertel) is the first to become aware of a bank robbery. But the robbery turns into a hostage situation and Arveds colleagues arrive quickly. Arved recognizes that the captor is his estranged son, Jacob (Rick Okon). Ever since the death of his wife, Jacobs mother, the two have alienated each other. While Arved tries to keep this dangerous information under wrap, he realizes that Jacob is not working alone - he is merely a pawn in a much larger game.
