SYNOPSIS
The last mine in the Ruhr area was closed in autumn 2018. With that coal mining in NRW dies and
becomes history. How does a region deal with the fact that its identity is outdated and it has to
find a new one? How does it feel to suddenly be no longer needed? In discussions with former
mining workers and their families, VOM VERSCHWINDEN shows how an entire region is changing
and how people and former employers are affected by it.
