A cinematic reflection on structural change in the Ruhr region. Where coal was once mined, steel produced, and machines built, industrial buildings are now falling into disrepair, unless they are listed as historic monuments. A new world of consumption and leisure is emerging on the huge open spaces: supermarkets, shopping areas, and amusement parks. Is this new world real, or does the experience only extend to the hours of the program?
