Over 1000 years ago, the Pergamon Altar was destroyed forever. The famous relief images, the fighting gods and giants, have been preserved. Today the ancient building is surprisingly present in two places – in Berlin's Pergamonmuseum as an exhibition architecture for the reliefs, and in Bergama, the old Pergamon, as the missing centerpiece of the city's history. Accompanied by Bénédicte Savoy, the documentary tells the story of how the monumental work of art became an attraction of the Museumsinsel at the end of the 19th century and how its absence is judged in Türkiye today.
