Synopsis
At the end of the 1960s the post-war generation started to revolt. This included journalist Ulrike Meinhof, lawyer Horst Mahler, filmmaker Holger Meins, and the students Gudrun Ensslin and Andreas Baader, who co-founded the Red Army Faction (RAF). Constructed entirely from archives, the film describes their increasing political involvement to the time of their armed resistance and the reactions of the German government.
