Synopsis: The south of Namibia, far from the comfort zone of safari lodges: an endless desert, dust, dry weed. For more than a hundred years a strange community resists the heat and the wind. They are outsiders, brought there by the colonialists from Germany and South Africa, nowadays they are close to extinction. In „Suedwestwind“ we observe them socializing, cuddling, fighting, sleeping. Moments of silent comedy, tragedy and existencial silence.

Director: Annika Sehn
