The Plot

Christian Bruhn has virtually set the Federal Republic of Germany to music. He is one of the most successful German composers and music producers in the pop industry. Bruhn's music, on the other hand, is well known: whether it's pop songs like "Marmor Stein und Eisen bricht," theme tunes for "Heidi," "Timm Thaler," and "Captain Future," or advertising jingles from Maggi to Milka: Christian Bruhn has written more than 2,500 compositions. This documentary is the infectiously upbeat portrait of a man who has accompanied and touched people across generations with his music since the early 1960s.
