Russia 1917. On each of the 729 days that they have been in a POW camp together, Richard has talked about his wife Anna to his chum Karl. On day 730, they attempt an escape. As they make their way back home, Richard is re-captured. Karl arrives in Hamburg alone a year later. In hopes of finding his former camp-mate, Karl visits Anna, but Richard has disappeared in the fog of war. Anna offers Karl a room in her flat. When, in the end, Richard does manage to get home, Karl and Anna are a couple. (Berlinale)
