When an illegally employed worker has a deadly accident at a construction site, his supervisor Lutz covers it up to protect his employer from legal issues. But Lutz’s web of lies grows when Irsa, the man’s 14-year-old daughter, shows up at the site looking for her father. As an ambivalent relationship grows between the two, Lutz wrestles with his guilt and the consequences of his actions.
Raw Materials won the 2023 German Cinema New Talent Award for Best Film at the Hof International Film Festival.
“Throughout his performance, [Peter] Schneider skillfully keeps us in suspense about his behavior toward Irsa and whether he is driven by pure selfishness and fear or by feelings of guilt and sincere regret for his criminal act. It is not easy to watch Lutz and Irsa’s journey—but it certainly is exciting.” (Kino Zeit)
