Everyone knows angels! But what are they in fact? Why do they have wings? Have they always had them? Have they always existed or is there any point of start in existence? Where did they come from? What are their names and why those? What is their mission? Has it always been the same? This documentary tells the "Story of Angels", by following emerging images, statues and frescos through all of the ages that formed their appearance until today.

At the beginning of the twenty-first century, abstraction - that most quintessentially modernist innovation - maintains a peculiarly contradictory position. Used, on one hand, by post-modernist artists as just one more quotable style amongst many, it is on the other hand still considered an elitist or hermetic language by audiences intimidated by its lack of recognizable subject matter. Yet ultimately, abstraction continues to be a viable creative path for contemporary artists of all generations, many of whom embrace it as the most inclusive and fundamentally resonant of artistic languages. Filmed at the artists' studios, the Dia Center for the Arts, and the Guggenheim Museum during their exhibition, "Abstraction in the Twentieth Century."

In April 1945, the German soldier Willi Herold is separated from his group. He finds a decorated captain's uniform in an abandoned car and decides to use it. Using the authority of this captain persona, he gathers a group of soldiers around him in the Emsland region near Papenburg and the border with the northern Netherlands, where he commits a range of war atrocities.
