Auf Anfang
2022, German. Directed by Georg Nonnenmacher & Mike Schlömer.
Michael Scholly is released 28 years after being sentenced to life imprisonment for murder. He had three years to prepare for this moment. But the world outside the prison walls has fundamentally changed in his absence and Scholly's ideas and expectations have little in common with reality. Questions arise: Can Scholly meet the demands placed on him? Is Scholly ready for freedom? His first year after discharge was supposed to provide answers - but the answer came sooner than expected.
