"Berlin, Alexander Platz"
Goethe Kino is a new series presenting contemporary German Cinema on a monthly basis.
The first entry in the series confronts the harsh reality of living in Germany as a migrant. Francis, a 30-year-old refugee, is the sole survivor of a boat that crossed the Mediterranean illegally from West Africa. When he wakes up on a beach in the south of Europe, he is determined to live a regular, decent life, but he winds up in present-day Berlin where a stateless person without a work permit is treated just as mercilessly.
