Wandel.Kino: "Eine deutsche Partei" + Filmgespräch

In the organizer's words:

A look inside the AfD, beyond the excitement of the media. Simon Brückner's exclusive access at local, state and federal level leads into the back rooms of a controversial party struggling with internal conflicts. A striking overall picture emerges, composed of precisely observed individual scenes, without external influence or linguistic commentary. Direct Cinema in the communication space of an organization whose radical wing candidates fight against supposed moderates. Political shear forces become visible, right down to the party's new generation, which seems to have already broken with the Federal Republic's system. The international networking of a right-wing party that is regrouping and gaining ground globally is also shown. The AfD system is drifting inexorably further and further to the right. The cinematic mosaic, created with sociological intuition, confronts the audience with a parallel world that has long since become normal for many party supporters, some of whom come from the center of society. Through gray areas, sometimes oppressively everyday or banal, the abysses of extremism, hostility and contempt towards supposed strangers and those who think differently open up. In its pursuit of an analytically neutral approach, the film takes us to places away from the public battlefields and begins where the daily news coverage must end. A balancing act in the field of tension between proximity and distance, which places the viewer's own experience at the center and invites them to think and argue further. Simon Brückner managed to accompany entire networks and committees over several years. Eine Deutsche Partei is the uncomfortable document of a historical stocktaking. A journey to people at the frontiers of democracy.
