Der zweite Anschlag

"Let’s ask ourselves how many in this room here know the people affected by the NSU.How many of the victims’ stories can we remember?" Ibrahim Arslan poses this ques-tion at an event of the "Unraveling the NSU Complex" tribunal. Racist attacks and kill-ingsrecur in Germany with a terrifying continuity. The media’s interest is thereby al-most exclusively focused on the perpetrators. In "Der zweite Anschlag", the victims get to speak themselves: About the terrorist at-tacks of the NSU, the racist arson attack in Mölln and the Rostock-Lichtenhagen riots. The protagonists’ stories weave together, since all of them advocate for a complete investigation and an end of the terror. Their accusations are aimed at a state that does not take action, a police force that has a structural right-wing problem of its own, and a population that encourages and supports this or looks away. A film that must be seen.
