The German Democratic Republic has not been on the political map of the world for more than 20 years. However, her sports legends are still alive. The former athlete herself, the champion of the GDR in diving, and now the director Sandra Kaudelka chose 4 protagonists for her film. This is one of the most successful shot putters in the history of the sport, Olympic champion Udo Bayer; two-time world champion in diving Brita Baldus; one of the best sprinters in the country, Ines Gaipel; record holder in the 400 meters, winner of the Moscow Olympics Marita Kokh. From the memories of the protagonists about their sports youth and stories about the present, an idea of ​​​​the country that they once personified is formed.
