These include observations of everyday life, portraits of individual fates, interviews, compilations, experimental forms or socially critical analyses of our present.
This edition of Hier & Jetzt is part of our film series on the 50th anniversary of the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich, where we address the historical context, the political dimension of sport and the aftermath of the Munich Games.
