Master of Disaster
A film by Jürgen Brügger, Jörg Haaßengier
Synopsis
Almost every week small and big catastrophes are played out in Germany and in Switzerland. Half end-of-the-world-scenarios with ten thousand participants are designed and staged to find out how one could master the biblical plagues to be expected in our networked world. The view into the parallel universe of the disaster protectors leads into the control room of our sheltered everyday life and shows its fragility.
«They imagine possible disasters in every detail, hoping to be prepared for any loss of control.»
