One of them is an art student with big ideas, the other a computer nerd.After meeting in 1993 in a techno club, they developed together the idea of creating a kind of global work of art that would allow people to travel to any point in the world, simply by zooming into a location with a click of the mouse.They quickly realized that computers in the early 1990s weren’t performant enough for their project.But that could change, especially with the help of a telecommunications giant and experienced hackers on board: They were sponsored by Deutsche Telekom, and developers were members of the Chaos Computer Club.Despite a chaotic process, the two partners managed to have their “Terra Vision” project ready for a presentation at an international communications fair in Kyoto, Japan, in 1994. It was a resounding success.But during a trip to Silicon Valley, the source code for “Terra Vision” fell into the wrong hands — and in 2005 Google, by then a tech giant, suddenly released Google Earth.The two developers from Germany felt that Google had stolen their idea — leading to a David vs. Goliath court case.The Netflix miniseries tells in two timelines and four parts how two computer freaks developed their idea, convinced a large corporation and finally the whole world of its interest — only to be robbed of their fame and fortune by a tech giant’s legal ruse.With this German production, Netflix demonstrates once again that the setting of a story is not what matters most, but rather what it is about. The two developers could just as well have been from Japan or South Africa instead of Germany; the core of their tale is universal.
