20 people from North Rhine-Westphalia , aged 18 to 88, have filmed various areas and experiences from their lives for this documentary with their smartphones for months . This resulted in a total of 7650 video clips with a total length of 217 hours. This resulted in a television documentary entitled “Echt We - This is how the West lives” with a length of 155 minutes, a 30-minute film that only deals with the topic of love (Echt We - This is how the West loves) and 10 to 20 individual contributions were created by each protagonist, which were then freely available on the Internet.

The 155-minute main film was divided into five subject areas:

  1. Generation family - children, happiness and adventure
  2. Finally 18 - grow up and start out in the world
  3. Over 70 - too young to be old
  4. Around 30 - how do I want to live
  5. At 50 - start all over again

Excerpts from the main film were presented to the public on NRW Day 2016, on August 27 and 28, in Düsseldorf .
