Das Wunder von Bern

Essen, 1954: The Lubanski family is in disarray. The father has just returned from captivity after the war. What should be a joyful reunion is anything but. He finds it difficult to adjust to life at home. His family has lived without him for many years. When he tries to please them with a nice meal by slaughtering the rabbit of his youngest son Matthias, the peace at home is irreparably shattered. At the same time, the German national team is fighting its way through the World Cup in Switzerland, round by round. When they finally reach the final, Matthias is determined to go to the stadium in Bern. His father thinks it's nonsense. Will he be persuaded?.
