Bernadette, ou Benni, comme elle préfère qu'on l'appelle, est une fille à l'air délicat, à l'énergie débridée. C’est une "systémique". Ce terme est utilisé pour décrire les enfants qui enfreignent chaque règle. Ces enfants refusent toute forme de structure et échouent peu à peu dans les services de protection de l’enfance et de protection sociale allemands. Peu importe où cette fillette de neuf ans est accueillie, elle est renvoyée au bout d'un moment. Et c’est exactement ce qu’elle recherche, car elle ne souhaite qu'une chose : pouvoir vivre avec sa mère, une femme totalement incapable de faire face au comportement imprévisible de sa fille.

Der Turm décrit les sept dernières années de la RDA avant la chute du mur dans l’univers d’une famille bourgeoise de Dresde, les Hoffmann. Le père est chirurgien, il assiste sans broncher à la dégradation du système de santé et à celui d’une société gangrenée par la peur. L’oncle est éditeur, il doit se soumettre à la censure en se contentant, avec une ironie froide, de profiter des privilèges que lui octroie le Parti. Quant au fils, Christian, il interrompt ses études de médecine pour faire son service militaire : son goût pour la liberté et son insolence lui vaudront la prison, puis les travaux forcés ; une descente aux enfers qui condamnera sa famille à un lent naufrage, à la fois tragique et absurde.

In 1933, as Adolf Hitler and the Nazis come to power in Germany, actor and comedian Hans Zeisig (Michael Herbig) and his partner, Siggi Meyer (Jürgen Vogel), have a successful comedy act at a Berlin cabaret doing impersonations of Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler. Meyer is politically active in the Communist Party and through him, Zeisig meets the attractive Dutch Resistance fighter, Frida (Thekla Reuten). Zeisig is apolitical; he's dreaming about a career in Hollywood. He finds the growing political tension an unpleasant nuisance, but Meyer is endangered by the Nazis' power grab. He arrives one day at the theater with a black eye from an attack and says he is going to go underground. Another performer, a Nazi supporter who caricatures a Jewish man, makes a wisecrack about Meyer's black eye. They get into a backstage brawl, fully made up and in costume—the Nazi as a Jew and the Communist as Hitler. The fight careens its way from the dressing room to the stage, with "Hitler" on top of the "Jew". The audience, larded with uniformed Nazis, initially assumes it to be part of the show and cheers. When the melee ends, the show goes on, but Meyer flees.

The 44-year-old family man Frank Lange (Milan Peschel) has a proper job and lives with his wife Simone (Steffi Kühnert) and their children Lilly (Talisa Lilli Lemke) and Mika (Mika Seidel) in a modern serial house when he learns he suffers with an inoperable brain tumour and has only but a short time left. Supported by his family he uses an iPod to keep daily records of his decline. Radiation therapy and chemical treatment take their toll on him. Eventually he grows too weak to leave the house and has hallucinations during which his tumour seems to appear as a vain actor in a late-night talk show hosted by Germany's established TV presenter Harald Schmidt. His children are increasingly overstrained and so is his wife Simone. The tumour deprives Frank from memory, orientational ability and even control of basic body functions. Fighting the pain with always stronger doses of morphium he loses his true personality and finally his speech. Having become a nursing case of the highest degree he dies at last in his home amidst his family. When actually everybody is lost for words, his daughter Lilly, an ambitious diver, utters: "I have to attend training".

Prison warden Dr. Fazetti (Leander Haußmann) is confident about having found a striking new concept for the rehabilitation of prisoners by offering them the chance to take a break from their sentence if only they can find themselves a trustworthy woman who takes care of them and moreover vouches for them. The convicts Steinbock (Til Schweiger) and Hammer-Gerd (Detlev Buck) succeed in doing so. However, since they are tough guys stamped by prison fights they have their issues when it comes to discipline and it is in particular hard for them to have a lady as boss. However, Steinbock falls in love with Emilia (Marie Bäumer) and Hammer-Gerd promotes Maren's career as a singer. (Heike Makatsch, who played Maren, would later in 2009 even play the German actress and singer Hildegard Knef in a biopic called Hilde.) Eventually they have go back behind bars but Emilia and Maren are now waiting for them.
