Berlin, 1934. Bernie Gunther, a homicide detective forced to leave the criminal police, works as a house detective at the Hotel Adlon while the city prepares for the 1936 Olympic Games. The discovery of two corpses —a businessman and a Jewish boxer— leads him to uncover a web of corruption and forced labour that exploits the Nazis' enormous spending to showcase the new Germany. Twenty years later, in pre-revolutionary Cuba, the investigation reaches a dramatic and violent conclusion.
