In 1971, hundreds of young people claimed the 85 acres of an abandoned 17th century military base in Copenhagen and set up a community. Over the next 40 years, they build a self-governed community with the hope of becoming legitimate. Finding it politically unpopular to evict the settlers, the Danish government declared Christiania a "short-term social experiment". Following 40 years of tense relations with the government, much of it focusing on the open hashish trade, Christiania is on its way to becoming a legitimate community. Christiania was born in 1971 when youthful idealism and a severe housing shortage incited hundreds of young people to occupy 85 acres of deserted brick buildings, woods, ramparts and canals as their home.

Alan Turing gehört zweifellos zu den größten Logikern und Theoretikern des 20. Jahrhunderts. Nur wenige Wissenschaftler haben so erfolgreich und vielseitig geforscht wie er. Turing, lange Zeit ein verkannter Held des Zweiten Weltkriegs, war durch die Entschlüsselung der Funksprüche der Deutschen maßgeblich am Sieg der Alliierten beteiligt. Als einer der einflussreichsten Vorreiter der frühen Computerentwicklung entwickelte er EDV-Programme und prägte den Begriff „künstliche Intelligenz“. Trotz dieser herausragenden Leistungen nahm sein Leben einen tragischen Verlauf: Aufgrund seiner Homosexualität wurde er in seiner Heimat Großbritannien verfolgt. Er starb im Alter von 43 Jahren unter bis heute ungeklärten Umständen. Das ungewöhnliche Schicksal des Wissenschaftlers, der unbeabsichtigt in den Strudel des Weltgeschehens geriet, setzt manche Kapitel im Zweiten Weltkrieg in neue Zusammenhänge und zeigt, wie eng der Sieg der Alliierten mit der Erfindung des Computers verknüpft ist.
