Halle-Neustadt, the modern development built in the city of Halle, was once considered the city of the future. Today it stands for obsolete planning. The documentary is concerned less with the physical location than with images and stories it inspired. With its constant reflection on the problems of memory and representation, the film also questions the value of the documentary approach. World premiere.
