Souvenir
Heidi Hassan
Synopsis
Fascinated tourists stroll through the extinct German Democratic Republic (GDR) museum as if it were an amusement park, indifferent to the painful stories that occurred under the communist regime. Their casual attraction to vintage, their comfortable forgetfulness and their need for utopia make them complicit in the current Cuban reality.
