The team behind The Baader-Meinhof Complex , which stars several of Germany's biggest celebrities, calls it an attempt to debunk myths about the gang.

The tunnels were to house a transit system beneath planned boulevards, squares, and huge buildings, including a Great Hall with room for 180,000 people.
