| Quote: | "The souvereigns of the molecules" - An exciting tour through the world of modern chemistry. Produced in 2003, this film shows in 18 minutes that chemical reactions take place everywhere - even in our bodies. Products from the chemists' laboratories - the souvereigns of the molecules - shape our everyday life: clothes and sports equipment made of plastics, computer chips made of silicon, cars with fuell cells, and mobile phone displays made of luminous LEDs. A film which completes chemistry lessons at schools and gets across to pupils aged 12 to 18 that chemistry is indeed everywhere. | |
| Evaluation: | The fact that modern chemistry produces innovative materials is nowadays considered more or less as self-evident and therefore registered consciously only marginally. The film tries in an impressive manner to do away with this notion and to make aware of the continiously proceeding search for new materials, without which our everyday life cannot be imagined. | |
