The Right of the Strong

A car bomb explodes outside a Berlin cinema as inside an Israeli film celebrates its premiere. The trail of evidence leads to the video blog of 18-year-old Jana. What might have caused her to do it? Jana herself can no longer give any information about the situation because she was killed in the attack. All that remains is her blog on social media.

"After the AfD was elected to the German Parliament, I decided to make a film against the newly emerging shift to the right. After extensive research, the concept emerged not to portray right-wing extremism as the ultimate evil, a despicable thing, as is usually done, but to focus on the question of why this movement is so attractive to young people."
