NOWA AMERIKA is a "Junger Dokumentarfilm" (German young documentary talents fund), directed by Kristof Kannegießer, we did in collaboration with the SWR.
Kristof went on a journey to Nowa Amerika, the "promised land", where a Utopia of a radical open-minded society becomes reality. It is a state which can’t be found on most maps, but which exists boasting its own language, constitution and laws. It is inhabited by over 300 confessed Nowa Amerikans.
Kannegießer discovers how humor and provocation can bend and destroy borders in our minds.
The documentary is now in post-production and will hopefully enter some festivals across the country in autumn. Fingers crossed!
