A superb, moving and thrilling interview with American actor Sterling Hayden (1916-86), held in Besançon, France, on board a dilapidated barge, when he was 65 years old. An unparalleled portrait, in his own words and without any qualms, of a legendary Hollywood star, icon of film noir and the western, who was also a marine, an OSS agent, an anti-communist informer, a writer and a wandering sailor: the hero of his own life.

Hannes Wader and Konstantin Wecker on tour together in Germany - a sensation that was not thought possible for many years. Two of the most important German singer-songwriters, both political and with eventful lives, in which a piece of contemporary German history is reflected despite their seemingly very different personalities. In his second film "Wader Wecker Vater Land", director Rudi Gaul accompanies the two artists from rehearsals to their joint tour. He humorously recounts the rapprochement between the two political singer-songwriters. Gaul also unfolds the unusual life stories of these two exceptional musicians in individual portraits and using archive footage.
