A group of older men in dark suits stands in the landscape around and look carefully into the distance. One is aware of future attractions: "There, the club are there to Arena, where the gourmet temple." The others are all trouble, the gleaming tourist paradise to imagine that here from the ground to be rigid and impressed into the wet gray Northern Hesse. A few cows stare back unimpressed.

"Hessisch Siberia": a touching dream of a glamorous future
After the walk there for the men in dark suits or large heavy Mettwürste. The man, who distributed them, says Henry "Henner" Sattler, and he dreams of a glamorous future for his homeland, which stands in stark contrast to the rustic meat products, with whom he as a give-aways for his region advertises.
Sattler is the mayor of Hofgeismar, a 17,000-souls in the community northwest of Hesse, in the region, because of its modest appeal like "Hessisch Siberia" is mentioned. If there is disarmingly straightforward after the Lord with the brush Schnauzer is emerging here soon one of the largest construction projects in Europe, a resort on 800 acres with five luxury hotels, three golf courses and a polo trotting along with the place.
The Center is the classicist palace Beberbeck form, there are currently still 43 old people in a retirement home housed, whose lease runs another 20 years. But before they can take care of saddlery, anyway he must first rise 420 million euros.
Over two years, accompanied filmmaker Klaus Stern the mayor during his fight for the "Castle Beberbeck Resort". He looks at him like he's excited the architects back tätschelt before it together in a citizens' assembly pull, he looks him in grueling negotiations with bankers and lawyers on the shoulder, and he shows it in the moving Balz to international investors.
The finished film will Sattler understandably not so nice, but he could counter-productive in advancing his Geldeintreiben. In Northern and ran around "Hennes Dream" is already isolated, and interested citizens asked themselves after the movie and rightly so, why the father in town meetings again and again with reference to the fact that the capital was shy deer, in particular negotiation reports expressed while he was chosen in front of the camera to any discretion whistle.
Indeed, talking to Sattler in the documentation jovially around the head and neck. Approximately when visiting the Hessian Prime Minister Roland Koch of the problem to be disposed of with his retirement home to talk about dementia, and the country's rulers showed zuraunt: "That is the charm of the town, which regulates it with a bottle of wine."
Director Stern has already shot some portraits economy, mostly through early winners and losers later of the Neuer Markt. It had a study such as the award-winning young deceased on the stock market Zampano Werner Koenig inevitably be fair to the dead. But even more tragic than comic attempts by Mayor Sattler, capital, collect, distribute the atmosphere of a requiem. The film but by the customs and traditions of a recently ended Wirtschaftsära in which it seems enough, with a Powerpoint presentation and a basket of sausage gifts for adventurous investors objects to inspire.

But since the crisis is there, no one likes more than investment Hasardeur geri. Will the mayor start even researching all sides of admiring glances zugeworfen, the enthusiasm ebbed over the next two years. Even Roland Koch absentiert during his three visits ever faster out of the picture. The doubt is hard, knocking the shoulder becomes softer.
"Hennes dream" is not only Wirtschaftsrequiem and Standorttragikomödie, it is also an anthropological study of how the money or the hope of money on the male body moves: constantly embrace and tap the business is strong, it should be the physical presence economic potency suggest.
Soon, the body contact for the Mayor of Hofgeismar however, a scarce resource; sometime düster he on the hunt for investors alone with Nice and Cannes, and not even want him on the phone to former comrades-Resort gentle encouragement grant.
But Henner does not belong to the people who give up quickly. At the Expo Real in Munich, one of the world's largest commercial real estate trade fairs, for the moment he blows last attack on international donors. All politely listen to his plans, nobody wants to embarking. Not even the other in architectural and economic considerations as adventurous Arabs. Instead of a few million, the sheiks an emissary to the Germans prefer a stuffed falcon in a fine wooden casket. Mayor Sattler feel flattered, but also a little irritated.
Ah, if he had at home but a few states Mettwürste.
