A filthy and exhausted soldier emerges from the Mediterranean wilderness - he is escaping from an unspecified war, trying to flee incessant violence and find refuge in solitude. Meanwhile, on September 11, 2001, aboard a small cruise ship, a scientific conference takes place to pay tribute to the renowned East German mathematician Paul Heudeber, a committed communist, anti-fascist, and a survivor of Buchenwald.
