Die Geheimnisse des schönen Leo
Leo Wagner was a co-founder of the CSU and a member of the Bundestag in Bonn. The war-scarred generation of politicians fulfilled their duties on the political front of the Cold War during the day, then relaxed in Cologne's nightlife with young women and old champagne. Their families at home often served only as a facade. For Leo, his extravagant lifestyle came at a price. He became involved in dubious business dealings and contacts with the Stasi. His grandson, the young filmmaker Benedikt Schwarzer, now reveals the political and personal background to one of the biggest political scandals of the Bonn Republic. Benedikt Schwarzer's research on Leo Wagner offers an unvarnished view of the contradictions of his generation and the abysses of the Bonn Republic.
