GC 03 Reclaim Your Story

Stories belong to those who tell them – and reclaim them! In "Reclaim Your Story", the exotic Saarland bears the scars of a bygone war within its forests and activist Xenia takes us with their journeys back and forth between the worlds of the hearing and the deaf. Two friends share a virtual body in an attempt to reappropriate once abandoned places, while the lines between fiction and reality become blurred during the filming of a love story. A planet with a growing population decides independently on the future of its inhabitants, and a Kazakh drag queen relates how bridges can be built between strict norms, a mother's ambivalent feelings and an empowering community.
