For the first time ever a camera unit has managed to get behind the facade of the EU power apparatus. This historic documentary gives us never before seen access to the European leaders during the crucial negotiations to admit new member states into the union. A controversial documentary that has stirred an international debate and caused a crisis in the relationship between the Danish Prime Minister and his counterparts in France and Germany. The Road to Europe follows the Danish Prime Minister and EU President Anders Fogh Rasmussen, as he leads the negotiations towards the enlargement. The documentary provides a revelatory insight into what EU leaders really think of Turkey's application for membership. We see the "before and after" of the Turkish government's meeting with the EU, and when this sensitive issue is discussed in the presidency's innermost circle.
