GRÜNES KINO: Kein Land für Niemand - Abschottung eines Einwanderungslandes

The GRÜNEN Bielefeld invite you to the GRÜNEN Kino - film screening and subsequent discussion with Schahina Gambir (MdB Bündnis 90/Die Grünen) and Dominic Hallau (OB candidate Bündnis 90/Die Grünen Bielefeld) on 3.09.2025 at 6 pm at Lichtwerk (Ravensberger Park 7).

"Kein Land für Niemand" ("No country for nobody") will be shown:

Germany is at a turning point! For the first time, a Union motion was adopted in the Bundestag with the support of the secured far-right AfD. The declaration on limiting immigration envisages, among other things, the complete closure of Germany's borders. A paradigm shift is on the horizon: away from the protection of refugees and towards isolation and deterrence.

Kein Land für Niemand, Abschottung eines Einwanderungslandes sets out in search of the causes of this political turning point and takes viewers on an evocative journey. The documentary begins at Europe's external borders, where an ongoing humanitarian catastrophe meets state ignorance, but also civil commitment. It accompanies a rescue mission in the Mediterranean, documents the catastrophic situation from the air and tells the stories of survivors who have found their way to Germany despite violence and deadly risks.

While Germany is helping to build a European fortress, the political landscape is shaking. From emotionalized media reports to politicians helplessly rowing to the right, a social narrative is emerging that is directed against migrants and those seeking protection. Is migration really the big problem it is made out to be? Or does the policy of isolation reveal deeper social fears?

In powerful stories, the film shows an increasingly frightening reality from the perspective of refugees and analyzes the dynamics behind the historical shift to the right. In dialogue with activists, academics and journalists, Kein Land für Niemand Abschottung eines Einwanderungslandes calls for the brutal status quo and the seemingly unstoppable radicalization of the migration and asylum debate to be called into question.

Because in order for there to be a credible Never Again in the future, we need alternatives that do justice to the unavoidable reality of migration in a world in crisis and an immigration country in upheaval.

What began as a film idea quickly developed into an extraordinary joint project: Sea-Eye, Sea-Watch, United4Rescue, German Doctors, PRO ASYL and the Mennonite Relief Organization joined forces to actively support the independent film project.
