Germany might not flaunt its wealth with glass towers and supercars, but behind plain entrances and old stone walls in quiet provincial towns lies a hidden world of enormous fortunes. Discover the discreet lives of the super-rich, where wealth is measured by what does not need to be displayed. This documentary steps inside the invisible structures of German wealth—documenting the private offices, family foundations, and quiet routines that keep the country's wealthiest families out of the public eye.
