- Overview
Short documentary about Emmen, one of the first planned cities in the Netherlands, a home for workers in the textile and metal industry. Emmen was one of the first planned cities in the Netherlands, a home for workers in the textile and metal industry. A city as a social experiment: it had to become the embodiment of a committed, happy and united society. But the planned idyll did not last long or perhaps never existed. A poetic, science fiction-like quest for a never materialized utopia.
