Supercity: Bangkok

A city that attracts 22 million visitors a year - why? What makes this city a tourist magnet and what is it like to live in such a metropolis? Is it possible to live there with a family, in a constant traffic jam, in constant reinvention, in a city that has to have something for everyone? A film that shows us everyday life, the extremes - but also the colorful and bizarre peculiarities of Bangkok. From self-made millionaire Rika, who despite her high-society life finds her favorite place in bustling Chinatown, to Volker, a German who has lived in Bangkok for 30 years, to Chad, a beautiful young woman who was actually born a boy and who embodies the openness of the metropolis.
