For half a century, the world's most influential people have gathered at the World Economic Forum in Davos, which provides them with a unique platform to solve global problems. How do they make use of this opportunity?
Since 1971, important politicians, entrepreneurs and activists have been meeting in Davos every year to reflect on how to improve the world. According to some. Others see it as a gathering of elites who, despite the seemingly well-intentioned slogans, protect the unsustainable status quo. The film reflects both these views, but above all provides an objective look at behind-the-scenes events so that viewers can gain their own picture. Much room is devoted to a discussion of the most pressing problem of our time, the environmental crisis, and to several prominent figures trying to bring the debate to the general public. The focus is on the event's founder Klaus Schwab, who explains the organisers' philosophy. Meanwhile, from the small organisational dilemmas there emerge serious questions and ailments that plague the whole planet.
