The small village of Jamel in the northwest of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania is considered a right-wing extremist stronghold. In the past, neo-Nazis have deliberately moved here. Using right-wing slogans and symbols, they openly claim dominance over the village. In the middle of it all: the artist couple Birgit and Horst Lohmeyer. In search of a rural idyll, the Lohmeyers moved to the village in 2004, underestimating the situation there, where they encountered right-wing extremist thinking and rejection, even threats. Instead of allowing themselves to be driven away, they make a statement against it every year with the "Jamel Rocks the Forester" music festival. After their barn was set on fire, they and their festival received prominent support from the German music scene. The documentary shows that the conditions in the village are not an isolated case and that folkish landgrabs by right-wing extremists are a widespread problem, but also how music can help fight for democracy.
Wild Heart (Wildes Herz) is a portrait of Jan "Monchi" Gorkow, front man for the punk band Feine Sahne Fischfilet, and his campaign against racism and right-wing extremism.
In South Africa, Marteria and his friends camp outside Cape Town for his birthday, unaware that “elf dust” - the planet’s most prized drug - drives hunters to kill ivory-toothed humanoids. They cross paths with dealer-baron Bronte, whose elf dust is secretly human-sourced, entangling Marteria in a deadly trade. The film closes with a haunting message: humanity embodies both the destruction and salvation of the universe.
