In eight parts, Alphons S. tells the story of his life as a child and teenage miner in the Ruhr region, as a vagrant traveling across Germany in the 1920s, as a farm worker on estates in Mecklenburg, as an anarchist and left-wing socialist—but above all as an intelligent and alert witness to everyday history from 1906 to 1939.
