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.

The film opens in Berlin in 1914, as Germany is preparing for World War I. Liebknecht (Schulze) receives a call from a fellow lawyer and revolutionary, Mr. Rauch, that documents have been found proving the German heavy arms industry's secret involvement in the buildup to the war. He brings these documents to a meeting of the Reichstag, accusing Gustav Krupp and his company of bribing officials to release military secrets. In addition to this, Krupp and his company wrote to ask the French media to state that the French military has twice as much artillery as they actually possess so that they may provoke a surge in militarism. Afterward, while celebrating a friend's wedding, Liebknecht learns of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, recognizing that this is the war the German imperialists were seeking. However, the resources for war still need to be approved. Liebknecht immediately begins campaigning among the public, denouncing the war as a means to secure profit for the capitalists. In an SPD party meeting, Liebknecht is one of only fourteen members to vote against the war credits. In the subsequent Reichstag meeting, he votes with the party discipline in favor of the war credits, to the public's surprise. He announces in the party meetings that he will no longer yield to party discipline and will stand by his anti-militarist principles even if the party leadership will not do the same. Liebknecht is the only one of the Reichstag — including 111 SPD representatives — to vote against the war loans, resulting in a number of death threats and work bans. Despite his immunity as a Reichstag member, Liebknecht is called to serve on the front as a sapper. It is here that he writes his 1915 manifesto, "The main enemy is at home!" The manifesto is passed among his fellow soldiers on the front before returning home. While he is away, Paul Schreiner, whose wedding Liebknecht attended earlier in the film, dies on the front. This leaves his wife Käthe to raise their newborn child alone and make Liebknecht's manifesto public.

L'histoire se déroule dans les faubourgs d'Odessa après la révolution russe. Un certain bandit "Tcherven" terrorise la ville. Volodia Patrikeev, fils du professeur et idéaliste à peine sorti de l’adolescence rêve de combattre les ennemis du régime communiste. Il se présente au chef de la milice locale afin d’intégrer le service de répression du banditisme. Mais il est envoyé dans la banlieue démêler les petites affaires sans importance. Il a sous ses ordres un inspecteur du nom de Grichtchenko qui occupe son post depuis longtemps et connait le coin comme sa poche. C'est un homme de terrain et paysan dans l'âme, l'exercice de sa fonction relève de la pure improvisation. Effaré, Patrikeev constate que Grichtchenko rend aux habitants locaux "pour l'usage pour un certain temps" l'alcool saisi dans les distilleries clandestines, non pas pour contourner la loi, mais pour que le produit ne se perd pas. Son autre inspecteur Victor Chestakov est un autodidacte, un homme réservé et courageux. Avec Grichtchenko, le premier jour de leur collaboration, ils se font voler le fourgon vert qui sert pour tous les déplacements de leur brigade. Patrikeev est contraint d'arrêter pour ce vol l'un de ses camarades d'école, un certain "Krasavtchik" qu'il affrontait dans le temps sur le terrain de football et qui à cause de ce détail lui est d'autant plus sympathique. "Krasavtchik" s'évade. En le poursuivant, Patrikeev finira par tomber sur la planque de "Tcherven" et découvrir derrière ce surnom quelqu'un qu'il connaissait depuis longtemps.
