Selected Film

Down By The River

Down By the River explores the memorialization of Delfin Guerra and Raúl Garcia Paret, two Cuban contract workers in the GDR who died in Merseburg in 1979. Through a visual tour of the city, the film assembles audio fragments, Stasi files, letters, and Facebook Chats into a reflection on forms of memorialization and continuities of racism.
