WELCOME HOME (IFFI 14)
Andreas Gruber
The young African Isaac has just managed to cross the `green border` to Austriavand he is already celebrated as the new star of a Carinthian village`s soccer team, when the policemen Samhaber and Rösler pick him up to handle his deportation to Ghana. Yet the procedure isn`t going according to plan: a few hours after their arrival in Accra the officials are standing on the town`s marketplace, with their passports gone, wearing nothing but their underwear, and being derided for stealing food. To avoid way more unpleasant experiences, they have to rely on Isaac`s help.
