North Rhine-Westphalia is 70 years old and 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.
Founded in 1946 by the British occupiers under the code word "Operation Marriage", North Rhine-Westphalia has shaped Germany's history like no other federal state. And over the decades it has itself undergone numerous transformations. It was the people of NRW who filled the state with drive, ideas and stories, thus giving the map-forming and hyphenated state its unmistakable shape and identity.
BROADVIEW TV tells the exciting story of NRW's development in "Our State" in a 90-minute film, as in the successful six-part TV series: from the ruins of the war, through the years of the economic miracle and times of crisis, to the great moments and new horizons in the technology and creative industries.
With the voice of Annette Frier, the production takes us through the various decades of a multifaceted and changeable protagonist: the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, which the filmmakers portray as a collage with exciting locations, dazzling figures and impressive original material from the time.
