After returning from exile, he began his work in Braunschweig until 1956. In a sensational trial, he achieved the rehabilitation of the resistance fighters of July 20, 1944. His work in Frankfurt until 1968 was associated with the kidnapping of Adolf Eichmann and the Auschwitz trials. The controversial lawyer encountered a wide range of rejections, and as a Jew, also openly anti-Semitic hostility. He campaigned for the consistent criminal prosecution of Nazi injustice and thus made a significant contribution to the democratization of West German society.

It is court day in Huisum. Village judge Adam, however, is badly injured. He says he "stumbled over himself" when he got up early in the morning. His official wig is also missing. It was given away for reworking, and caught fire on a candle - or did the cat have kittens in it during the night? While there is at least a grain of truth in Adam's report of the fall - which took place at night rather than early in the morning - as an "Adam's fall", the web of lies that the judge presents to explain his condition is becoming increasingly confusing.
