Film synopsis: This documentary begins on the day that Joana and Berthold Barluschke split up. The film tells the story of a man living in the second half of the twentieth century who, in his determination to be someone, lost sight of himself and became a henchman - first for the GDR Stasi and then for the West German Federal Intelligence Service.A man who served a number of ideological paths but who doesn′t remember any of the goals. A man who glorifies his life and turns it into a legend. An agent. A man who, once business is over and he is made redundant, decides to train his camera on his own family - like a weapon. The camera as a cold-hearted chronicler. Berthold Barluschke, whose wife Joana still hopes that the family will one day come together again and that something positive will emerge from all that has occured.
