On the occasion of the federal election on February 23, 2025, Jessy Wellmer and Ingo Zamperoni ask: What issues are Germans concerned about before this election, what is important to people? The two Tagesthemen presenters traveled around the country and spoke to citizens, experts and celebrities: about the economic crisis, migration and the shortage of skilled workers, the fear of war and the division of society. A representative survey commissioned for the documentary complements the personal attitudes and opinions.

TV presenter Markus Lanz invites prominent guests and experts from all areas of public life to his colourful talk show. As a rule, there are four guests, introduced individually to contribute their personal experiences to the topics.

Anne Will discusses political processes, economic relationships, and social trends with her guests. Her motto: to think politically and ask directly.
