    Brief synopsis

    More and more churches are closing, often against the will of their congregations. But what happens to the people who shaped these places? How can we use the empty places of worship instead? Her church is being demolished - for Renate, it's like losing her home. In Krefeld, Jan protests in front of his closed church. In Thuringia, saving a church brings a village together. And in the Harz Mountains, artists buy a church at auction. Is that going well?
