The twentieth century was the era of the most amazing discoveries in the history of mankind. Planes and electric guitars were created, the DNA code was discovered and much more. The exciting 10-episode program takes viewers on a journey through decades of discoveries that have changed the modern world – from communication methods to ways of thinking and self-perception. Each series is an inspired story about one decade of the twentieth century through the prism of discovery. The authors of the program explore the origins of great ideas and the fate of the brilliant, often eccentric, inventors behind them. With the invention of the radio, the world became smaller; with the invention of the machine gun - more dangerous; with the invention of counters in parking lots - more expensive. But there were other, less brilliant, ideas that, fortunately, were not destined to be realized. Where did the robot dog and business suit with built-in air conditioning go? But all inventors, whether they were successful or unsuccessful, contributed to the twentieth century of discovery, the most “inventive” century in human history.
