Alcohol: No substance in the world seems so familiar to us and is so incredibly diverse in its effect. Alcohol is available everywhere and this particular molecule has the power to affect all 200 billion neurons of our human brain in completely different ways. But hardly anyone calls alcohol a drug despite its psychoactive and cell-destroying effect. Why do we tolerate the death of three million people every year? Have we turned a blind eye to the dangers and risks for thousands of years? What role does the powerful alcohol industry play with an annual turnover of 1.2 trillion euros in this on-going concealment? The author, who himself enjoys having a drink, looks into the question why we drink at all, what alcohol does to us and to what extent the alcohol industry influences society and politics. He travels around the world from Germany via England to Nigeria to detect aggressive trading practices of the global alcohol industry seeking growth in new markets at all costs. He also visits Iceland, which successfully made the turnaround: Where 20 years ago hordes of drunks roamed the streets, young people today master their need for relaxation and life stimulants without alcohol. The film has no intention to point a moral finger but nevertheless will significantly change the drinking habits of the viewer.

　　唐纳德·施特尔瓦格总是格格不入：饱受欺凌，最终辍学，并成为了一个瘾君子。上世纪 90 年代初，正当他的生活开始好转时，一部电视剧把他和一起银行抢劫案联系了起来。描述：非常高，非常胖 — 就像施特尔瓦格一样。一名可疑的专家证人声称劫匪的耳垂很有特色，说服法官相信施特尔瓦格有罪，他因此被定罪。尽管有可信的不在场证明，施特尔瓦格还是在狱中度过了八年。在他获释后不到两周，真正的罪魁祸首就被抓获了。施特尔瓦格被宣告无罪，很快成为各大媒体争相报道的焦点人物。但随后，一辆黄金运输车在 A81 高速公路上被劫持，价值 180 万欧元的黄金被抢走，一切都改变了。劫犯的头目 — 臭名昭著的黑帮说唱歌手莎塔尔向警方告密了。黄金劫匪和被劫者有一个共同点 — 他们都认识唐纳德·施特尔瓦格…他是否犯下了此前被污蔑的罪行？这就是他为自己的命运复仇的方式吗？
