“Essay, a term from written literature: unity of science and art; unity of social and individual knowledge,” Harun Farocki wrote in a first draft of the project Erzählen. The film follows two people (played by Engström and Farocki) investigating their respective subjects: one is tracing the involvement of the German heavy industry in the rise of Nazi-Germany, the other is interested in the fate of Larissa Reissner, a young Soviet writer and revolutionary. Both of them struggle with the question of how to organize their research and find a narrative structure. Their paths cross, and the film turns into an essayistic interrogation of structuralist narratology.

A montage of still and moving images, mixing and alternating black people and white people, fantasy and reality, a presidential suite and a mother’s kitchen: a sensitive, poetic evocation in the manner of the film-maker’s Remembrance.

尼克（瑞恩·雷诺斯饰）是一个能力顶尖的警察，在一次捉捕行动当中因故身亡。死后的他并没有直接上天堂或是下地狱，而是被送往R.I.P.D，也就是驱魔局。驱魔局是专门把不愿离开人世间的坏亡灵和怪物纠出来、送往他们应该被送去的地方，而不是留在人间。尼克因为办案能力卓越而被送往驱魔局，在那里，他被指派和一名死了很久的西部拓荒时代执法警官洛伊（杰夫·布里吉斯饰）成为搭档。 　　躲藏在人世间的坏亡灵们暗中计画，收集一个已经破碎且四散世界各地数千年的神圣法器的碎片，一但收集完整再组合起来，就可以把无法到人间的坏亡灵们重新召回人世间，到时候，人类将无一幸免；这下子，尼克和洛伊更是责任重大。可是两人不但办案方式不同，个性也迥异，合作起来笑料百出，这对搭档真的有办法在时间限制中完成任务吗？
