It's the end of the 60s and Bennie Köpke (Tom Schilling) is training to be a police photographer despite wanting to be a film director. He lives with his mother in the prestigious Munich district of Ramersdorf and his swearing in ceremony is coming up in two weeks. At a demonstration, Bennie films rebellious teenagers in plain clothes and falls in love with Luzie (Karoline Herfurth) who lives in an activist commune. Problems arrive when Bennie's younger brother, Freddie (Benno Fürmann) shows up in desperate need of money and a simple solution: they film a pornographic film which Bennie directs.
