Marketed as Germany's first "immersive film", EIN GANZES LEBEN (aka: An Entire Lifetime) is a virtual reality experience produced by UFA Lab, utilising the then experimental "3D Human Body Reconstruction" technology (3D-HBR), provided by Fraunhofer HHI (soon to be aquired by Volucap).
The film follows an actress named Maria as she goes on a journey through the history of German film – from a silent film scene right up to the present day.

EIN GANZES LEBEN premiered as part of the “100 Years of UFA” exhibition at the Deutsche Kinemathek (Museum of Film and Television) in Berlin. Visitors were thus able to experience not only the pioneering work of the first German filmmakers in the exhibition but also the VR experience.
