La Empresa
André Siegers, DE 2023, 94 min, span./engl./dt. OmeU
"The Germans" want to shoot a movie and end up going astray. Instead of Las Vegas, they find themselves in the Mexican village of El Alberto. The resident-run vacation camp there offers adventure tours as well as a leisure pool: In the "Caminata Nocturna", members of the indigenous community re-enact illegal border crossings into the USA based on their own experiences. It's all real: smugglers, bandits, border officials and rough terrain. International film crews and tourists queue up. The German documentary filmmakers keep their distance and, with the permission of the village authorities, film the activities of an ecosystem that offers the young people there the prospect of a different dream than the American one.
