A PART OF ME

A man returns to his home country after 50 years. Two siblings are investigating the disappearance of their older brother. Our film is a family story. It separates into different episodes, that circle around the disappearance of 22-year-old Khalil and deals with the question, what drives a young person to radicalize?

A Syrian woman fighting for asylum.

A father that suppresses his feelings.

A young woman that is nagged by her feeling of guilt.

A mother that relearns compassion.

And a man in his best years, who is falling in love again.
