Arthouse: Das leere Grab

In the organizer's words:

DE/TZ 2024, 97 min., Director: Cece Mlay, Agnes Lisa Wegner, OmU (original with subtitles), FSK 12

In their film, the German-Tanzanian directing duo Agnes Lisa Wegner and Cece Mlay tell of the traces and traumas that the former German colonial rule has left behind in Tanzanian families and communities to this day - and of the strength and self-empowerment of the survivors who are stubbornly campaigning for a full investigation. "The Empty Grave" sheds light on a chapter of German history that has hardly been illuminated (also cinematically) and thus makes an important contribution to the long overdue reappraisal of German colonial crimes.
