The Documentary Sales Company Deckert Distribution presents: Fatherland / Vaterland
	Fatherland Vaterland
	Director: Thomas Heise Production: ma.ja.de. Filmproduktion Germany 2002 35mm 98 min
In Saxon-Anhalt, near the town of Zerbst, set away from busy roads, next to a deserted military landing strip, is the village of Straguth. An unimportant place. Time behind it. Or stretching out in front. The film describes the people of this peaceful place, in the past, the present and the future. A film like the digging of a hole. If one could dig in spiral form. And dig a black hole. An archaeological journey to landscape, people and things, traces of changing times and transition. Wide open landscapes and detailed drawings of people within. And on entering Otto Nathos' modest bar, there is always talk of war. Or the era of youth.	Original Language:German English subtitles
	Awards: Silberne Taube at the 45th International Leipzig Festival for Documentary and Animated Film 2002
