In 1931, the author Christopher Isherwood arrives in Berlin at the invitation of his friend, poet Whisten Hugh Oden. Working as a teacher of English, he rents housing with the elderly homosexual Gerarald Hamilton and the beginning actress Jean Ross, who sings courtyard songs in a seedy cabaret. They and other residents of the city, falling on his way, become the heroes of his stories. After a sexual adventure with Kaspar, a street prostitute guy, he gets acquainted with the Khinets cleaner and falls in love with him. He pays for his mother’s medical accounts, to the great discontent of his Nazi brother Gerhard. With the strengthening of the power of the Nazis, Christopher, together with Heinz, returns to London, but unable to prevent his return, due to the expired visa, he is forced to part with him. Years later, Christopher Isherwood, now a successful writer, returns to Berlin in order to meet Hinets for the last time, who had managed to get his wife and children during this time.
