In September 1780, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe wrote the poem “Over all the hilltops is quiet now” on the timber wall of a hunting lodge on Kickelhahn mountain in the Thuringian Forest. Already in Goethe’s lifetime, these verses had been set to music by all kinds of composers. The newest musical interpretation is composed by Blixa Bargeld for the short film EIN GLEICHES. The film was shot in September 1997 in the area of the same hunting lodge on Kickelhahn mountain in the Thuringian Forest.

In 1939, the sculptor Josef Thorak made a bronze horse sculpture, which was set up in front of the Reich Chancellery. The film visits the different stations and traces of the sculpture after 1945, which has not managed to take root as a monument. What commemorative function do such objects serve?

In 1980, a company in Berlin-Kreuzberg sold its factory premises to 30 alternative projects that wanted to try out self-management and alternative forms of work. The documentary film attempts to show the extent to which these aspirations were realized; it describes the problems and forms of self-management and the initial difficulties that Mehringhof had, particularly with its financial backers.
