Starting from the present and the living environment of young jazz musicians, this energetic documentary explores the question of why jazz was able to conquer the Republic so quickly, survive the times of fascism despite all reprisals and carry off its final triumph after the war.

Iceland is the most fascinating place in the world. See unique shots of how life begins, how it grows and how it ends. Majestic volcanoes, bubbling geysers, raging waterfalls, threatening fjords over impressive glaciers, endless lava fields - hardly any other country in the world is as rich in natural wonders as Iceland, the remote island in the harsh North Sea. Cinematographer and documentary maker Reinhard Kungel tells the story of life - without words.

Iceland is not only a geologically stunning country filled with geysers, fjords, volcanoes and waterfalls, but it also has the happiest people in the world.

This Documentary follows the ambitious project of building a cloister town with only the tools that where present in the middle ages.
