9/11. When the WTC sways under the terrorist's attack, German broker Jan Ottmann watches, shell shocked: His best friend Gregor Luckner is staying in the burning North Tower. And Jan sent him there, right into death. It seems 9/11 is the price for their selfish dream of fame and money, a tinsel dream that corrupted their lifetime brotherhood. Unwilling to accept the obvious loss of Gregor, Jan passes in revue their friendship: Two idealistic boys, totally different, rich and poor, often struggling - but two of a kind. As their past unfolds in a social panorama of the last three decades, both friends alienate from each other, lose what once was of real worth for them. Until 9/11: In the midst of raging disaster Gregor faces the unexpected decision to die or to regain his own dreams, regain his friendship with Jan. For ever and ever and one day.
