IC 09 CONFRONTATIONS - Human Rights Films - On the other Side


Uncertainty and the unknown lie on the other side, and often they are met with amazement and fear. Similar to the protagonists in this program who look at each other in amazement. Their encounters move us and make us reflect on our own behavior and the reasoning behind our own actions. Sarcasm, silent observation, and open-faced prejudices—the situations can quickly take a turn for the worse, and small changes in behavior lead to life-or-death decisions.
