Die Getriebenen

Summer 2015. More and more Syrian war refugees and migrants are pushing towards Central Europe along the Balkan route. The Hungarian Prime Minister Orbán refuses them to stay in his country. The German Chancellor Merkel sets out her policy with her mantra “We can do it”. Your government and party colleagues, above all the Bavarian Prime Minister Seehofer, are skeptical and hostile to the policy of open borders. In cooperation with the Austrian Chancellor Faymann, Merkel organizes the transport of thousands of people from the Hungarian-Austrian border via Vienna to Germany. The plot reconstructs the 63 days in 2015.
