D: Can Candan, documentary, USA/Turkey 2000, 83 min. German subtitles


After the Wall is down, Turkish immigrants re-consider their relationship to Germany. The documentary snapshot, taken by the Turkish film-maker Can Candan, was made in 1991 – precisely thirty years after the first Turkish guest workers were invited to the country. People of different ages speak about their past, their present and their future prospects in a united Germany.
