The world does not need any conductors! A provocative thesis that the little animated baton builder puts up at his workbench. Do the participants of the world-renowned Gustav Mahler Conducting Competition see this as well? In a humorous way, the film examines the power and magic of the maestros and explains what the orchestra actually needs a conductor for.
