Afrika Film Festival: Welcome to Sodom - Dein Smartphone ist schon hier
- Location:
- Lindenmuseum Stuttgart, Hegelplatz 1, 70174 Stuttgart
"Sodom is like a beast. Sometimes you kill the beast. Sometimes the beast kills you"
A cautious, restrained film that gives viewers a look behind the scenes of Europe's largest garbage dump in the middle of Africa and portrays the losers of the digital revolution.
The focus is not on the mechanisms of the illegal electronic waste trade, but on film as a means of capturing a sliver of reality.
The garbage dump of Agbogbloshie will most likely also be the last destination for the tablets, smartphones and computers we buy tomorrow!
Director: Florian Weigensamer/Christian Krönes, Austria/Ghana, 2018, 92 min.
