Germany. Summer. 2006 World Cup: A nation experiences a summer fairytale. Germany, 18 years later. UEFA Euro 2024. A changed country. And yet another happy, peaceful summer fairytale? Esther Sedlaczek takes the audience on a journey through Germany in 2024 and paints a sporty, entertaining and thoughtful picture of the situation in the “football nation”. She meets national coach Julian Nagelsmann, Federal Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock, ARD football expert Bastian Schweinsteiger and world champion coach Jogi Löw, among others. She meets fans and visits the Alpine community of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, which is looking forward to welcoming thousands of Scots during the European Football Championship. But she also deals with the question of whether football in 2024 can really still unite a society that is almost irreconcilably opposed to one another in many ways.
