On the edge of the volcano – Hulda Gold investigates dangerously close to the abyss.

Berlin, 1929. Hulda Gold is a midwife in Schöneberg, working at a maternity counseling center. As a single mother, she faces numerous challenges and societal judgment. But Hulda remains determined to be a good mother to her daughter Meta. When she cares for a young actress at the famous theatre at Nollendorfplatz, she discovers a whole new world of artists and stage stars, where things aren't always as they seem. But as the Great Depression hits, the theater struggles to survive. When a series of strange break-ins occur in the neighbourhood, Hulda becomes concerned, especially when someone she knows is directly affected. She begins her own investigation, showing bravery and a strong sense of justice, not just for herself, but for Meta as well.
