Meuthen's Party

Marc Eberhardt / Germany / 2017 / East European Premiere / 93 min.


synopsis

Jörg Meuthen looks like a polite provincial politician. This intimate behind-the-scenes look at his candidacy for German parliament as a member of the populist Alternative for Germany (AfD) – putting up posters, speaking at pubs, giving speeches before thousands of people – illustrates the unsettling ability of demagogic rhetoric to speak to the masses.

biography

Director and cinematographer Marc Eberhardt (1984) studied German linguistics and philosophy and is currently studying documentary film at the Film Academy Baden-Württemberg.
