Eldorado KaDeWe

During a robbery at KaDeWe, of all places, a magical encounter occurs between Hedi, a saleswoman in the textile department, and Fritzi, the daughter of KaDeWe owner Adolf Jandorf. It is love at first sight: Against all social and family odds, the two disparate young women begin a passionate relationship. At the same time, Fritzi's older brother and war returnee Harry is fighting for his father's recognition as the new junior manager of KaDeWe - and against his own despair. At Harry's side is Georg, a general manager placed in front of him by his father, who has worked his way up from a poor background to the top echelons of KaDeWe. Georg, of all people, will play a decisive role in the future fate of the department store... Mini-series set in the famous KaDeWe department store, founded in the 1920s by Jewish-German entrepreneur Adolf Jandorf. The KaDeWe still exists in western Berlin, and is considered an important architectural and cultural symbol of the city. In the so-called Roaring Twenties, Berlin was a modern metropolis with a vibrant nightlife, where sexual diversity and social utopias were part of everyday life. But at the same time, it was a period when political radicalisation arose as well as concerns owing to inflation.
