Storia
In 1984 East Berlin, Stasi officer Gerd Wiesler suspects playwright Georg Dreyman of disloyalty despite his apparent ideological purity.

During surveillance, Wiesler grows fond of the couple, eventually intervening secretly to protect them. His actions go unnoticed until they catch up with him, leading to menial jobs. However, an unbelievable event occurs that affects Wiesler's fate.
