EINHUNDERTVIER


Germany 2023 – Director: Jonathan Schörnig





104 refugees, 80 minutes, 6 cameras shooting in parallel. This
sea rescue in real-time unfolds over a gruellingly long period of
time. Eventually all the refugees from the overloaded, rapidly
deflating dinghy are on board the “Eleonore”. Meticulously
documented and told entirely from the point of view of the rescue
team, this film demonstrates the urgency of humanitarian
operations in the Mediterranean.
