Grenzland (Poland/Germany 2020, 100min.) (in German)
Film screening in the presence of director Andreas Voigt
With the new documentary GRENZLAND, Andreas Voigt continues his cinematographic work in the German-Polish border region, which he began in 1992 with the film 'Grenzland - eine Reise.'
Almost 30 years later, the director once again embarks on a journey and encounters people who live on both sides of the Oder and Neisse rivers along the German-Polish border. The moving, surprising and sometimes disturbing life stories he uncovers, transform into wonderful and poetic film images. Voigt takes the audience on an exciting time travel into rarely known landscapes, exploring and telling stories from the margins, yet from the centre of Europe.
Watch the trailer to the film here.
