- When Lena and Ulli start the engine of their old Land Rover, Lady Terés, they have a plan: to drive from Hamburg to South Africa in six months. What they don't know yet is that they won't ever get there. Two totally different characters, jammed together in two square meters of space for almost two years, they experience what it really means to travel: leaving your comfort zone for good. Starting in Morocco, they quickly dive into the life of locals they meet on the road: Jamal, a Moroccan Berber who lives with his dromedaries in the Sahara, Ziza, a Mauritanian musician who fights against suppression from the government, Mame Sy, a mother who set up a private school for the poorest of the poor in Mauritania - and many more. Their journey leads them through the vibrant green canyons of Guinea, the scorching heat of Mali, and the amazing surf of Sierra Leone and Liberia. Everywhere they are, the two Germans make contact with the locals and demonstrate that real travelling is about more than plain sightseeing. But their long journey doesn't spare them the dark side of travelling: they are also confronted by corruption, sickness and even death. Setting out to discover a continent, their trip leads them down a very different road. One they did not expect: the journey to their true inner selves.

- It all starts with the legendary friendly FIFA football match between Bahrain and Togo which took place in September 2010. It is a legendary match because of the match itself; the result, the realization and the course of the match (rejected goals, pure playing time etc.). It is legendary in the second place because, as it turns out later, it drastically changed the view the world had till that time on match fixing. How was it possible that an official FIFA-match could have been played with a completely "fake team"? How was it possible that even people closely involved did not know about it? Even players, coaches and officials didn't have any clue until the makers of the documentary confronted with the real story behind that match. In Fixed, a football comedy, all key-players explain their part in the story of the friendly FIFA football match between Bahrain and Togo. Including Wilson Raj Perumal, the world's notorious matchfixer. Although the match itself can be seen as a hilarious football comedy, the consequences are not funny at all. First of all, the match has had a dramatic impact on the Togolese players and coach. They suffer until this day from the consequences, which they couldn't guess for at that time. Next to this, the match is exemplary for the way corruption in sport in general and match fixing specifically, is organized and executed. The makers of the documentary succeeded in showing a bright and plain picture, that goes much further than just influencing a result of a sports match. By showing that picture, the makers aim to inform the world of sports about this topic in order to open discussions and develop suitable solutions to protect sports integrity.

The 24 Davids in this film are of varying ages and professions, ranging from cosmologist to recycler; together, they construct a playful "ecosystem" of ideas that touches on every sphere of knowledge and carries within it the power to radically transform. 24 Davids offers a melting pot of heady thoughts and politics in a refreshingly freewheeling cinematic format, probing the mysteries of the universe and the challenges of living together.
