Das Capitol

Where do people's wishes and dreams come from, and what becomes of them? A question for people in the midst of a period of political upheaval. At the same time, a question for the cinema, a place of wishes and dreams – a question for the "Capitol." The film tells the story of the Capitol cinema in Schwerin from the fall of the GDR to December 1991 and from its opening in 1936 to the present day. Over a period of one and a half years, observations were made of the lives of the people who work in the cinema.
