Film Programm
at CITY 46
In the frame of program focus »5 Years After Hanau«
As part of the program focus “5 Years After Hanau,” this evening presents two films in which the voices of those affected by right-wing violence, their anger, their analyses, and their wounds are at the fore. “Spuren – Die Opfer des NSU” by Aysun Bademsoy and “Der zweite Anschlag” by Mala Reinhardt. Both make it clear that remembrance politics without political consequences remains just another form of looking away.

Spuren – Die Opfer des NSU
D 2019, Direction: Aysun Bademsoy, 55 Min.
The film accompanies relatives of the NSU murder victims and addresses institutional failure, politics of memory, and the long struggle for visibility of those affected. In doing so, the film shows how deeply the terror and state failure continue to impact their present lives. Without focusing on the perpetrators or the apparatus, Bademsoy reconstructs the perspectives of the families—their experience of humiliation through investigations that suspected them instead of protecting them, and their long struggle for recognition.

Der zweite Anschlag
D 2018, Direction: Mala Reinhardt, 62 Min.
The film portrays victims of right-wing violence and focuses on the “second violence”: lack of support, institutional defense mechanisms, and public pressure on the victims themselves. The film focuses on people who have survived racist violence—and on what comes after the attack. It shows the “second violence”: investigations against the victims, discrediting, and political evasion. The protagonists formulate their own analysis of right-wing continuities and blind spots in the state and reveal how survivors must fight for memory and justice themselves
