City of Oldenburg

Agency For Saving The World

Why is it so difficult to inspire people to embrace a climate-neutral future? Bea Wendel, head of the Agency for Saving the World, asks herself exactly this question. Together with Lasse and Ruth, she decides not to bury her head in the sand, but instead to win over all citizens to a great and future-ready Oldenburg. Along the way, they encounter peculiar theatre puppets, design the city of the future and walk the fine line of civil disobedience.

Well-known locations such as the Theater Laboratorium, the Kulturzentrum PFL and the Casablanca serve as settings. Supporting roles and extras were largely cast with local residents from Oldenburg.

The lead role of Bea Wendel is played by actress and presenter Wilma Werner. Her fellow campaigner Ruth Sommer is portrayed by Berlin-based actress Marleen Jakob. Benedikt Zielinski makes his screen debut in the role of Lasse Neumann.
