This cleverly staged low-budget film takes a humorous approach to the topic of flight and migration and dispenses with striking messages.
Synopsis
A theater production turns into a culture clash when German actors and African refugees rehearse a play about Jewish immigrants.
Director Paul wants to tell the story of his grandfather, who tried to escape to Cuba in 1939 on a cruise ship.
African migrants from the nearby refugee shelter join to give the play more topicality - they will play Jewish refugee as extras. Suddenly, the theater space itself is a place of encounter. Suddenly, the theater space itself is a place of encounter: How tolerant are we with strangers? Can we act and share in a humanitarian way? How does racism arise?
"The cleverly staged low-budget film refrains from striking messages and takes on the topic of flight and migration, at times, quite humorously." (Filmdienst)
