DIE ANDERE HEIMAT focuses with utmost authenticity on the story of ordinary people and their lives. Against the background of rural Germany in the middle of the 19th century when whole villages suffering from famine and poverty emigrated to faraway South America - Edgar Reitz tells a dramatic family and love story in his new feature film DIE ANDERE HEIMAT. The story centers on two brothers who one day are forced to make a final decision: leaving or staying? Edgar Reitz is mostly known for his internationally successful HEIMAT trilogy.
