In the Brandenburg village of Unterleuten, an investor is planning the construction of a wind farm. The construction project disturbs the supposed village idyll and divides the inhabitants. In Unterleuten, the interests of the residents clash: while a large part of the population is mobilising against the construction of the wind farm, the different ownership structures of other residents lead to conflicts. Events come to a head. Meiler, the investor from southern Germany is trying to gain a competitive advantage. Mayor Arne Seidel sees the village's existence threatened if the contract is not awarded to the local "Ökologica", as it is the largest employer. However, there are not enough hectares in the suitability area, whereupon the managing director Rudolf Gombrowski asserts his influence in the village community. Old enmities boil over and the situation threatens to escalate when a child disappears.
