When the night is at its darkest ...

Berlin, 1930: The city is in turmoil. Economic crisis and political instability are bringing increasingly radical forces to the fore. 
Hulda also senses that the supposed golden years are over. This makes her all the more committed to caring for women and mothers as a midwife. When she tries to help a pregnant woman, she stumbles upon a mysterious death in the family's circle: the younger sister, Jutta, is part of a youth group that meets at night on the banks of the Havel River. The young people sing and celebrate together. But then a student is found dead on the riverbank. He was the leader of Jutta's group—and her secret crush. But was his death really an accident during a nighttime adventure? Hulda soon suspects that there is more to the story than meets the eye. In turbulent times, a youth without a future desperately seeks stability. And is willing to pay a high price for it ...
