Noi îi spunem Hanka

Grit Lemke • Germany • 2023 • 91 min
Romanian Premiere
A sophisticated documentary with impeccable aesthetics about the life of the Sorbs in Lusatia. It explores how they manage to preserve the culture of an ancient Slavic people in the midst of the German landscape.
Assuming the role of narrator with a personal poetic vision, Grit Lemke embarks on a journey through Germany to explore, alongside her subjects, the life and traditions of the Sorbs—a nearly forgotten people who have managed to survive throughout history by passively but resiliently defending their identity, language, and culture. In this film, we have the opportunity to follow young Sorbs who embrace and strive to live their Sorbian identity, despite the challenges they often face.
