The Blue Rider
The Dawning of the Modern Era
The Blue Rider – this is the name a group of artists chose for themselves when they joined forces just over 100 years ago to exhibit their works together.
Their pictures were extremely colourful and often did not depict objects, humans or animals. Instead, shapes and coloured surfaces dominated their pictures. This abstract method of depiction was completely new in the world of art and attracted a lot of attention. At that time, the press wrote that their first exhibition was a wild parody and a bizarre carnival. The audience was scandalised, ranted, blustered and spat on the paintings. The artists were called shameless bluffers and incurably insane. But critics and the audience could not have been more wrong since this exhibition was to become world-famous and the artists changed art forever.

Air Traffic
Being able to fly has been a dream of humanity from time immemorial. But it does not even date back a century that people actually started being able to travel through the air. Since the 1960s, the number of flight passengers has been constantly increasing. Thus, the airspace is no longer dominated by birds but by man-made flying objects.
Rights and Obligations
Three girls of different ages: Anna is 17, Paula 15 and Lena 13. Before the law, their respective ages have consequences – because children and adolescents have different rights and also obligations.
Ceramic
Ceramics are indispensable in our everyday lives. We eat from ceramic plates, drink from ceramic cups, use tiled ceramic bathrooms. But how is ceramic manufactured? The film reveals the secrets of this fascinating material! We get to know more about the beginnings of ceramic in the Old World of Egypt and Mesopotamia, about Greece, China and Rome. We gain interesting insights into the valuable earthenware and are also shown the exquisite further development of the "white gold". Today this versatile material is irreplaceable in industry, too. Whether in space or as an easily compatible substitute in medicine, ceramic is applied in many places.
