Heimat leuchtetVietnamese who teach German to immigrants, Turks who insist on midday peace, Iranians who paint their garden gnomes, or a politician with Palestinian roots who explains to the regulars' table what being German means today. Lucas Vogelsang travels from Wedding in Berlin across the Federal Republic of Germany and meets people who talk about their origins and identity. In Pforzheim, Rostock-Lichtenhagen or Castrop-Rauxel. In this way, he travels into the present of our country - "Heimaterde" confronts the big question of who we are. "Lucas Vogelsang is a sensitive observer and a powerful narrator. His stories are sometimes raw, sometimes touching, but always deeply human." Benedict Wells.
