Mit der Faust in die Welt schlagen

The brothers Philipp and Tobias grow up in provincial Saxony. In summer the air here shimmers over the concrete slabs, in winter the frost breaks up the streets. When their parents build their own house, this seems to be the family's departure into a new life. But surrounded by industrial legacies of times past, the fear of losing future prospects, belonging and home becomes more and more palpable. When refugees are to be accepted in the village and there are threatening protest marches in the country, the situation escalates: one of the brothers withdraws into himself, the other gives free rein to his anger. The chronicle of a breakdown. An exciting, highly topical examination of our torn country.
