The pretext of the film, set in Cologne, is Heinrich Böll’s novel “Billiards at Half Past Nine,” which they strip down to a handful of stark events and film with a confrontational angularity akin to Bartók’s music that adorns the soundtrack. The subtlest of cues accompany the story’s complex flashbacks. The middle-aged Robert Fähmel tells a young hotel bellhop of persecutions under the Third Reich| his elderly father, Heinrich, an architect famed for a local abbey, recalls the militarism of the First World War, when his wife, Johanna, incurred trouble for insulting the Kaiser. A third-generation Fähmel is considering architecture, just as the exiled brother of Robert’s late wife, returns, only to be met by their former torturer, now a West German official taking part in a celebratory parade of war veterans. Straub and Huillet make the layers of history live in the present tense, which they judge severely. The tamped-down acting and the spare, tense visual rhetoric suggest a state of moral crisis as well as the response—as much in style as in substance—that it demands.。白丽云，著名美女作家。八年前，她刚到北京工作不久，被老板性骚扰，男友张大维把老板打残被判重刑入狱，为帮张大维减刑，她求助于律师杨迪，杨迪不仅帮张大维减了刑，而且还帮白丽云过上她想要的生活，白丽云跟杨迪产生了感情，张大维出狱后，她不得不面临痛苦的抉择。 北京某区公安分局的刑警马晶晶，她因为忙于工作，忽略了丈夫和家人，婚姻亮起了红灯；在侦查一桩蹊跷的名画抢劫案时，她意外发现好友丁虹和杨迪的婚姻关系的真相，因此意识到家庭对自己的重要，决定要拯救自己的婚姻。 丁虹，《都市法制报》的主编，杨迪的妻子，马晶晶的大学同学和好朋友，她自以为一切尽在自己的掌控中，但当生活的真相浮出水面后，她的精神几近崩溃。。
