In 1959, in a small German village, the annual fair is set up. When a carousel is fixed firmly in the ground, a fair worker discovers a skeleton, a steel helmet, and a machine gun.

But when he arrived, no one wanted to help him, neither his former friends nor the minister, or even his own parents.
