Movie Details Click Here!Storyline: The architect Daniel Brenner is in his late thirties when he receives his first challenging and lucrative commission: to design a cultural center for a satellite town in East-Berlin.

Together, they develop a concept which they hope will be more appealing to the public than the conventional and dull constructions common to the German Democratic Republic.
