Mothers on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown

Who are these moms that have to keep on living different lives at the same time, at work and with their children? Some experience maternal burn-out, this physical and mental exhaustion which makes them wonder whether they are actually "good mothers". Some feel depressed and others admit that they no longer have time for themselves, that they only think about their children, and sometimes they even hate them. In this documentary, mothers talk about the hell they have experienced and their debilitation in order to help others learn to recognize the signs of this exhaustion.

Ruralité : Une jeunesse oubliée

Molsheim in Alsace: a local mission welcomes young people from across the region. It is the "big" town upstream of the working-class valley of La Bûche, an isolated area that is suffering the full brunt of unemployment and the depopulation of its villages. Dorian, Tiffany, Sandra, and the others are between 17 and 20 years old. Without jobs or training, these young people struggle every day to break out of their inertia. Yet some of them have not left their rooms for over a year when they arrive at the local mission. By joining the Youth Guarantee program, they hope to find a structured environment that will help them face a world of work that they find difficult to understand.

Dying Out of Sight: Hikikomori in an Aging Japan

It's estimated over a million Japanese live as "hikikomori," recluses totally withdrawn from society. Some hikikomori may even go for decades without leaving their house. While in the past the phenomenon was most commonly associated with young men, recent data has revealed a much wider demographic of people whose confidence in themselves, and in society, has been shattered. As the parents or relatives hikikomori so often depend on entirely become too old to care for them, many now face a dire situation, left alone and unable to cope.

Hanau - Eine Nacht und ihre Folgen

The murderer came from the neighborhood: On February 19, 2020, an assassin shot and killed nine young people for racist motives in Hanau. Survivors and relatives report how they experienced the night of the crime and the months after it and how they defend themselves against the logic of the perpetrator who wanted to make them strangers in their own homeland. Since that February night, they have been fighting for the memory of the victims and for clarifying what happened. And they ask many pressing questions about the night of the crime and the perpetrator that no one has wanted to answer so far. The documentary consistently looks at the crime from the perspective of the bereaved and uses their stories to tell about troublesome life of a citizen of foreign descent in Germany today, about inequality and about the everyday racism of the authorities and educational institutions.
