The Principality of Liechtenstein is a fairy land - or at least seems to be one: its tiny size, its remote location on the edge of the Alps and its reputation as a tax haven create an appearance of idyll. Since a few years, however, there is seething unrest behind the façade... While high up in his mountain castle, Hans Adam II, the Reigning Prince of Liechtenstein, tries to get rid of his adversaries down the valley to even further extend his position of power, which is already unique in Europe, the majority of the population remains silent. Liechtenstein is a high-security wing for all those prosecuted by their fisc, and absolute discretion, the basic pillar of the financial sector, has become the whole country's slogan. Nevertheless, some dare to uncover - prudently and awfully alone - the fractures within the Liechtenstein society in order to provoke some movement and to open their country up to the outside world.
