A documentary about the hooligans and the rivalry of two football clubs in Leipzig.

A journey from Alexanderplatz to Lichtenberger Brücke through the avenue in East Berlin: Karl-Marx-Allee in Berlin is an internationally significant architectural ensemble. Its significance for the history of Germany is just as great. And this avenue has accompanied me throughout my life. As a child, it was part of my route to school. My aunt Lotte lived on it. I was often in the Karl Marx bookshop. As a young filmmaker, I made my first long documentary about it. Thirty years later, I now cycle through the avenue to work every morning. My movement through the street is also a movement in time.

Ina, just released from prison, returns to the place of her childhood in search of life and meets the occasional desperado Domühl in her mother's house, which has been empty for thirty years. Hagen, a mentally handicapped resident, also ends up in this unusual landscape somewhere in the middle of nowhere south of Berlin in search of his uncle.

Unusual camera angles and eyewitness accounts of the planning and construction process capture the spirit of the early GDR and the idea of socialist urban planning and architecture. The "National Development Program Berlin" envisaged Stalinallee as the focal point of a district of residential and high-rise buildings and as a model for the architecture and urban planning of the capital. The section of road between Strausberger Platz and Frankfurter Tor is considered the beginning of the construction of the "socialist capital of Germany - Berlin" and was designed in the style of socialist classicism, the so-called "Zuckerbäckerstil", by the architects Hermann Henselmann, Hanns Hopp.
