A film about the construction of the first Slovak skyscraper. It captures the beginning of construction until its completion. In addition, we learn how the building was born in the minds of the investor and architects - people who said to themselves that it is time to build such a building in Slovakia as well. It is a builder's dream come true. It shows the vision of the developer, the thinking of the chief architect, but also of his collaborators. They talk about what makes this building special and what inspired them to the form in which it is designed. Alongside the technical level of the construction, a human story of enthusiasm unfolds, thanks to which this building reaches its final form. Part of the film also focuses on the future residents of the skyscraper. Their new home was literally growing before their eyes. The film shows their feelings about the building, why they decided to live in this building and what they expect from it. The flow of ideas alternates with the gradual physical realization of the building. We ask about the relationship of construction managers, individual worker professions, constructors... Bratislava is a young, dynamic city with a rich history dating back to the days of the monarchy. However, he has not yet experienced this project. It is the story of a monument that fundamentally changes the silhouette of the capital.

The film will be followed by a discussion (only in Slovak).
