2013 film by Marc Bauder

The senior investment banker Jochen Walther is at the peak of his career at the Deutche Bank. He just finished the deal of his life along with his personal assistant Tom Slezak, when during the celebrations he suddendly jumps from the roof of the bank's headquarters in Frankfurt. Was it suicide or even a murder?

The traumas of the past continue to divide families. Children cannot understand their parents, who were spied on and imprisoned in the GDR. How can they keep living in the past? The touching documentary of two young filmmakers Dorte Franke and Marc Bauder describes the experiences of so-called "enemies of the state of the GDR". Based on the fates of three families of the brilliant film "(TAZ) shows how the system of repression in the GDR worked and what effects the experience of oppression in their lives today. An important film that stands out as a solitaire from the mass of silly Ostalgia Strip, which have little in common with the truth.

A cinematic essay - inspired by the book "who we were" by Roger Willemsen With Alexander Gerst (astronaut), Sylvia Earle (deep sea researcher), Mathieu Ricard (buddhist monk), Dennis Snower (economist), Felwine Sarr (philosopher) und Janina Loh (critical post- humanist). We may think that we're simply not capable of understanding the increasingly complex problems of our planet, but for these charismatic scientists, that's not enough. Whether it's on the top of the world, in the depths of the ocean, inside the human brain, at the G-20 summit, or in the heart of the International Space Station ISS, they are searching for practical ways to save our world. Considering their drive, we have to ask ourselves if, we as citizens of the planet, are finally ready to take on responsibility - if only for the sake of those who will come after us and ask: "WHO WE WERE"?
