Burkina Brandenburg Komplex

Germany2018fiction19'Short matters! Krótkie filmy roku (2019)

A presumably African village, inhabited by Germans. An archaeological find is made in a mine: a Ferrari. The Museum of Prussian Cultural Heritage is run by a black woman. She presents artefacts from Western consumer culture with a special emphasis on German products. The film describes a geographical construction that makes use of ‘our’ medial and collective image of Africa and puts it to the test through inaccuracies. EFA Nomination – Berlin International Film Festival.
