HÖHENFLÜGE

Germany 2019 – Director: Lena Leonhardt – Original language: Chinese, English, German – Subtitles: English

Several hundred thousand euros for a pigeon: a price many super rich in Dubai or China are willing to pay because especially in China betting on pigeon races has become a million-dollar business. HIGHFLYERS talks about winners and losers in a game ruled by the new powers of global economy.

We present the world premiere of the film at DOK.fest München 2019.
