Mr. Twente, your documentary series about the German national team is called “All or Nothing”. With a view to the World Cup in Qatar, one has to say: “Nothing” would have been a more appropriate title. We ran through various scenarios: How do we compose the documentary if the team fails in the semi-finals? What do we do if we are eliminated in the quarterfinals? What in the round of 16? It wasn’t in my plans that it would be over after the group phase. That meant a big dramaturgical problem.
