OTOMO - Sat, Aug.. 17 @ 1pm
ADIFF WASHINGTON, DC
GOETHE INSTITUTE
Saturday, August 17
1pm Otomo - Skype Q&A after the screening
A powerful film portraying institutionalized racism and police brutality, Otomo provides a convincing look at the everyday world of refugees, who are continuously surrounded by tension and insecurity. In the summer of 1989, a Stuttgart newspaper reported the true story of a West African asylum seeker who physically assaulted an intolerant subway ticket-taker; fled, and became the target of a city-wide manhunt. Otomo is a sober, fictionalized reconstruction of a tale that shocked Stuttgart, and a gripping portrait of how institutionalized racism drives a disempowered individual to violence and inhumanity.
Directed by Frieder Schlaich, 1999, 84 min, Germany, Drama, German with English subtitles
