North Rhine-Westphalia looks back on a unique history. A history peppered with great emotions and moments of happiness as well as disasters and failures. Charged with numerous myths, wishes and legends.

We revive the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s. We ask how the West lived, what it burned for. What were the major developments that still have an impact today and shape everyday life? What was irretrievably lost? Those who experienced something special, moving and unforgettable during this decade tell us on the spot what happened - and how it changed their lives.
