We are facing the greatest upheaval since industrialization. To stop climate change, the energy system must be restructured worldwide. There is very little time left for this. But there are places where this renewable future has already arrived.

The documentary examines the question of what needs to happen politically, socially and societally in order to implement what is technically possible in the field of renewable energies. To do this, the film visits two completely different places. One of them is in the USA and the other in Bavaria. These places have two things in common: both have completely converted their energy supply to renewable energies and both therefore have more money in their coffers today than before.

The documentary provides a global overview of the solutions that already exist for a global energy transition. And it asks what challenges still need to be overcome – not only in laboratories and power plants, but also among the people who have to drive the change forward today.
