Heil

Director:
Dietrich Brüggemann

Welcome to Prittwitz. The acclaimed Afro-German author Sebastian Klein is on a reading tour in the East German backwater and is given a fitting welcome by local neo-Nazis: a blow to the head. Sebastian promptly loses his memory and parrots everything people tell him. Nina, Sebastian's pregnant girlfriend in Berlin, travels to Prittwitz and teams up with the village policeman Sascha to track down her boyfriend.
