The subject of this historical drama is a splintering Berlin in the years of 1948 and 1949. Played against the backdrop of social upheaval, the characters in the drama come to epitomize the best and worst of each pole of the political sphere. A 17-year-old hoodlum by the name of Gladow works hand-in-glove with a local white-collar criminal to rob and pillage every day and night, defying capture. While he and his gang of thugs are terrorizing the people of Berlin, the Soviets are trying to make the blockade of their region of control impermeable. The future casts long shadows over the drama, as Berlin's problems take the shape of times to come.

An American filmmaker travels to modern day Berlin to make a film based on a real-life incident from 1942 in which 13 Jewish prisoners from a concentration camp were promised freedom if they appeared in a German propaganda film. Unfortunately, the Germans lied. The psychological process undergone by the modern filmmaker while shooting the story provides the basis of this arty and challenging film.

A young dragon looking for his own fire must fight against an evil wizard with help of the beautiful ice princess, Lilli.

"Flucht in den Norden" is a somewhat lackluster drama set in Finland in 1934. Johanna is a young woman who has fled Nazi Germany to visit her old university friend Karin at her family's estate in Finland. Quickly, it becomes clear that the two are more than just friends, as they resume what can only be assumed as a recurring love affair.
Upon arriving at the friend's family estate, Johanna's anti-fascist views immediately clash with her friend's brother, who is pro-Nazi and the two argue passionately. A second brother proves to be her saving grace, as he shares her own political views. The two begin a heated affair, leaving Olin's character out in the proverbial cold.
The two travel north to an Arctic port where they engage in a debate over whether Johanna should stay with him, out of harm's way, or continue to Paris to join the resistance movement.

Katharina Thalbach führt durch die 6-teilige Zeitreise und moderiert mit witzigen Anekdoten auf ihre humorvolle ur-berlinerische Art diese Chronik.
Zahlreiche Zeitdokumente, Gemälde und die Dreharbeiten an originalen Schauplätzen und Gebäuden machen diese Dokumentation zu einem informativen und unterhaltsamen Film über einen der wichtigsten Abschnitte der deutschen Geschichte.
Im Januar 1701 krönt sich Friedrich III., Kurfürst von Brandenburg, im ostpreußischen Königsberg als Friedrich I. zum „König in Preußen“. Die Selbstkrönung des prunksüchtigen Provinzfürsten markiert den Aufstieg Bran denburg-Preußens zur europäischen Großmacht.
Über mehr als 200 Jahre hinweg bestimmt der Hohenzollern-Staat entscheidend die deutsche Geschichte. Preußen erobert sich die Vorherrschaft im Deutschen Reich und wird zu dessen Machtzentrum. Der Staat Preußen, Sinnbild deutscher Machtansprüche, wird nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg durch Be schluss der Alliierten aufgelöst.
Preußen hat stets sehr gegensätzliche Beurteilungen provoziert. Preußen ist Aufklärung und Absolutismus, ist Militarismus und Minderheitenschutz, ist Disziplin und Untertanengeist. Preußen ist der „Alte Fritz“ und der Polizist mit Pickelhaube. Preußen ist heute Geschichte, aber seinen Wirkungen und Auswirkungen kann man sich nicht entziehen.

Based on the novel by Thomas Mann. Charlotte Kestner, the love of Goethe's youth, became famous because she was the real-life Lotte represented in his renowned The Sorrows of Young Werther. At forty-four years of age she travels to Weimar to see Goethe again. The posturing of high society and Goethe's personal history lead her to an unexpected conclusion. Dramaturge (later Studio Director) Walter Janka was befriended by the Thomas Mann family, making this adaptation possible.
