A major construction site nearing completion

All cables have been laid, the wall paint has dried and the final inspections are underway. Site manager Thomas Zetzsche is proud of what he and his team have created. Something concrete out of nothing. Order out of chaos. A modern dream made of concrete and glass. But suddenly, ever greater deficiencies appear. Cables lead nowhere, the fire protection system goes haywire, and entire rooms seem to disappear without a trace. Thomas rushes from meeting to meeting, trying to sort out the chaos, until he finally realizes that he can no longer keep the scheduled opening date. He has to question his own role in this flawed system and what consequence he will draw from it.
