David Hasselhoff, better known for his roles in "Knight Rider" and "Baywatch" released a song titled, "Looking for Freedom" the year before the Berlin Wall came down. He performed it on top of the Berlin Wall to a million people during the biggest New Year's Eve party Germany had ever seen. Twenty-five years later, David revisits the now-reunited captial, investigating what is left of the Wall, and explores what it meant in the context of the Cold War dividing Communism in the East from democracy in the West. Along his journey he meets extraordinary people who dreamt of freedom and risked their lives trying to overcome the dreaded Berlin Wall.
