Der Tag tells the story about the every day occurrence of death. The essay-film sketches the last day of about ten people who died in Berlin. As voice-overs, the “passers-by”, or the different people close to the deceased, tell their story of that particular day from when they woke up, until the moment of death – somewhere in the city. Sometimes this moment is totally surprising, and sometimes it seems somehow forceful...
Bastian happens to run into Isabelle in the elevator; he secretly writes his phone number on one of her cigarettes. The next morning, she smokes the cigarette. She accidentally destroys her chance to contact him again. Isabelle therefore goes to a radio station she knows Bastian likes and goes on the air to make a “I’m looking for” call, but at the exact moment she’s live on the radio—which he’s listening to—he gets a call and doesn’t hear her. She waits for him, but of course he doesn’t show up—or is there a chance for a do-over, a chance to go back in time and do it all over again?

Up to 22 men share a cell in the hopelessly overcrowded Rahova prison on the outskirts of Bucharest.

At the same time, the film shows how the prisoners try to preserve their humanity in an inhumane environment and cope with their bleak everyday lives with creativity, humor, and a spark of optimism.
