MEDEA - WERDEN WIR FREI SEIN, FRAGTE SIE PLÖTZLICH | experimental | GER 2013 | dffb | 48´ | 1:2,39 | red mx 4k & zeiss standard

The movie interweaves rehearsals for a dance piece, "Medea", with the troubles of a young Georgian refugee on the run from German immigration authorities, Kafka text fragments, and Cherubini's Medea opera, into a story of liberty, égalité and the denial of it to those who have been stigmatized as "strangers" from the time of old Corinth until the present.
