Sankt Urban plot

1945, post-war Germany. German and Soviet miners enter the shafts of the Saxon Ore Mountains to get them going again. The battle for uranium mining begins and this is urgently needed for the Soviet Union to build their own atomic bombs. The mining company Wismut is initially owned by the Soviet Union and soon after becomes a Soviet-German company. The story of former farm worker and current Wismut miner Janek is representative of the development of an entire generation, for which 1945 marks a major turning point into a new era.
