Dresden, Christmas Eve. Veteran communist and factory director Walter Lörke is told by his daughter Anne that she became pregnant by a young man named Thomas Ostermann, whom she intends to marry. Thomas is revealed to be a sharp critic of the government. Enraged, Walter leaves the house. Outside, he begins to inquire about his would-be son-in-law. After a clumsy voyage in the streets of the city, during which he encounters many absurd phenomena, he discovers that Thomas had a friend whose parents escaped to West Germany. The friend was ostracized by society, but Thomas did not shun him, and was therefore barred from entering university. Walter returns home and talks to Thomas, who realizes that although he suffered injustices, he remains true to the ideals of the party. The two reconcile.

As the news of the October Revolution sweep through the world, the German High Seas Fleet's command, wary of a mutiny, decides to send all its ships to a suicide mission in the English Channel. Sailors Albin Köbis and Max Reichpietsch are sentenced to death for political activity. When the socialist sailor Steigert, a member of the firing detail, cannot bring himself to shoot them, he is arrested. On the cruiser Prince Heinrich, Steigert's friends Lenz, Lobke, Kasten and Bartuschek receive Vladimir Lenin's transmit to all of mankind calling for peace. Slowly, the sailors in Kiel — all members of different socialist parties: the Social Democrats, the Independent Socialists and the Spartakists — begin to realize the need for a revolution. The workers and the shipmates rebel against the officers, but the political gaps between them lead the uprising to a failure. In the end, many of the rebel sailors attend the foundation conference of the new Communist Party of Germany.

Wolfgang Schmidt travaille comme graphiste publicitaire à La Maison de la publicité. Il est mauvais, mais il sait parler et a ainsi beaucoup de relations. Il passe son temps libre à commenter des matchs de football et voudrait en faire son métier. Siegfried Huster, de la grande entreprise Bureau Central des Petits Imprimés, cherche un nouvel employé pour le siège. Le dossier de Schmidt lui fait bonne impression et, bien que Kühn, la directrice de La Maison de la publicité, essaie de le convaindre de l'incapacité de Schmidt, il ne la croit pas et décide de le convoquer. Lors de sa poignée de main avec Huster, Schmidt la trouve si forte qu'il serre les dents et perd une incisive. Comme il a tendance à bégayer, il ne dit rien aux questions de Huster puis parle rapidement.
