9/11/2001 - German broker Jan Ottoman watches the disaster on TV, shell shocked: his partner Gregor is in the North Tower of WTC - where Jan sent him on business. It seems 9/11 is the price of their lust for fame and wealth, which corrupted their 30-year friendship. Jan looks back at a long story of a rich and a poor boy - but two of a kind. In the inferno Gregor faces a decision: to die, or regain his dreams and their friendship.
