"The holy Korntal" - that's how the community near Stuttgart is known. The pietistic congregation of brothers has been running children's homes here for over 200 years.
In 2013, the saintly world began to crack: the first victims reported years of mistreatment and sexual abuse since the 1950s. As a result, a tenacious struggle for reappraisal and compensation, for sovereignty of interpretation and image cultivation begins.
Director Julia Charakter accompanied six victims over several years. The result is a profound, depressing documentary that also shows the power that can arise when people decide they no longer want to be victims.
