O tejto otázke sa rozhodne v meste, čo sa navždy zapíše do dejín vďaka dohode, ktorá nielenže viedla k rozkladu demokratického Československa, ale aj otvorila dvere Hitlerovým politickým ambíciám v Európe. Zatiaľ čo Chamberlainovo lietadlo letí ponad Lamanšský prieliv a Hitlerov vlak uháňa na juh od Berlína, do Mníchova cestujú Hugh Legat, jeden z Chamberlainových osobných tajomníkov, a Paul Hartman, nemecký diplomat a člen protihitlerovského odboja. Tí dvaja boli kedysi dobrými priateľmi a teraz, keď je budúcnosť Európy na vážkach, sa ich cesty znova pretnú.
