For Life in a Day, a similar YouTube project instigated by Ridley Scott, 80,000 internet users sent in 4,500 hours of film. Wortmann hopes to do even better and is looking to receive contributions from 100,000 individuals, which 16 people will then view in order to select the choicest fragments, which will then be used to create the film Deutschland. Made by Germany.
