Biotope / Biotop

Life in Neuperlach, a Munich suburb, is quaint. It is a safe neighborhood, where people know and greet each other. Everybody has their own backyard; single car garages are lining the narrow footpaths and everything is groomed. But for some time now that peacefulness is troubled, because refugees are supposed to move in next door. As some of the residents are afraid of the noise to be expected, they are putting up a noise protection wall. Biotope shows the life of the locals and gets to the bottom of the reason for building that wall.

No status. Ukraine

Getting a refugee status in Ukraine is one of the most difficult and unpredictable challenges. We follow a political refugee from Russia who tries to get status in Ukraine. Despite all the burdens of living with no documents, Alexey Vetrov works and participates many actions against Russia's aggression. The story of Nurkhan, a journalist, began when she covered the so-called Osh massacre in Kyrgyzstan. Now she and her three teenage daughters are seeking for asylum in Ukraine.
