DIE MÖLLNER BRIEFE

THE MOELLN LETTERS

Thirty years after the racist arson attacks in the northern German town of Mölln in 1992, survivor İbrahim Arslan discovers hundreds of forgotten letters of solidarity. The film follows the family as they confront their trauma, shedding light on the treatment of victims of racist violence and their struggle to foster a new culture of remembrance.

“At a time when democracy in Germany faces threats unparalleled in the past 80 years, the film asks crucial questions, gives space to the personal losses of the victims, and makes solidarity visible” (director Martina Priessner)
