The Mölln attacks - Surviving racist terror

In 1992, three people died in an arson attack carried out by neo-Nazis in Mölln, northern Germany. They were relatives of İbrahim Arslan, who was seven years old at the time. The film follows the family as they come to terms with their trauma.

Ibrahim survived the fire, but lost his sister, cousin and grandmother. In the wake of the Mölln attacks, the town received thousands of letters of solidarity. They were archived - and forgotten for almost three decades.

Woven into İbrahim's moving quest to uncover the past and his encounters with three of the letter-writers, the rediscovered letters form a visual and emotional bridge between the past and the present. The film follows İbrahim and his siblings, painting a sensitive portrait of a trauma that continues to shape their lives to this day.

For İbrahim, coming to terms with the past means one thing above all else: fighting racism and championing a culture of remembrance centered on the perspectives of those affected.
