Truck company Mittermann is nearly bankrupt. Boss Sylvia Mittermann takes on a risky delivery job with a harsh time limit and a penalty clause to get them out of the reds, but at the same time, all her drivers disappear. Returning driver Franz Meersdonk tries to get the delivery rolling but lacks someone to drive the second truck. His only option seems to be Guenther Willers, an ex-trucker now trying to become a race car driver.
