    GERMANY / 2012 / German, Romanian / Color / 106 min
    Director:
    Philip Scheffner

    -

    Two illegal migrant workers from Romania were shot to death in a cornfield on the German-Polish border in 1992. Director Philip Scheffner assembles landscape and memory, witness testimonies, documents and investigations like a puzzle, creating a “cinematic revision” of the case. Through this process, the history of racism and violence toward Eastern European emigrants, especially Romani people, hidden behind the death of these two Romani men surfaces anew.
