There are so many peaks in this country – and we're not just talking about mountains: the world's highest rocking chair, the largest walk-through wine bottle in South Styria, the fastest summer toboggan run this side of the Danube. Superlatives wherever you look – and they all want to be climbed, conquered, mastered, overcome. In a world that divides everything and everyone into winners and losers, every small town must have the biggest something and every person must grow beyond themselves. But if strength is only an end in itself, isn't every peak simultaneously a low point? Sonja Pikart observes how "strong" men devour the planet in their hunger for power. How high-performers train their hearts at the gym – not to love better, but to run away faster. In doing so, she discovers poetry in times of weakness. Surrounded by an army of nuclear families who believe they've won the game of life, she finds romance in friendships. And when she's told in her weakest moment: "You're so strong!", she builds an action figure of herself and realizes: now it's time to feel immortal! A program about heroes and those who never were. https://www.sonjapikart.com/ Admission: €25
