The Battle of Nations was fought near Leipzig in 1813 - and is now presented as if ‘live’, using a news broadcast style commonly used for contemporary trouble spots. VTR recording, YouTube-clips, mobile videos and helmet camera recordings bring us the latest from the Saxon battlefield. Reporters opt in to describe the situation directly from the frontlines and emergency military hospitals; correspondents in Berlin, Paris and Moscow evaluate the tense pan-European situation in October 1813. Among others an ARD stock market expert explains how Napoleon’s defeat influences present and upcoming stock market development. On this second day, the Allied Troops grow stronger and catch up during encounters with the French army.
