Mayor candidate Braubach pays a visit to geriatric nurse Nele Siebold: after seriously injuring her drug-addicted son Enno in a car accident, he wants to offer his support. Or is he just trying to manipulate the family to keep the story out of his election campaign and "down"? Is he more to blame for the accident than has been officially established?
Nele's nephew Jerome is convinced of Braubach's guilt. He invites himself to the meeting and wants to turn Braubach in. As a parcel carrier in precarious working conditions and deep in the "rabbit hole" of his filter bubbles, he sees an opportunity to get even with "those up there". He sets a trap for Braubach that quickly escalates and leads to very fundamental questions. Ultimately, it's about controlling how a story is told.
FUROR shows the centrifugal forces of acute social polarization and negotiates the contradictory dynamics of power and resistance, pointed fingers and raised smartphones. An evening that illuminates the limits of democracy.
