An engineer finds accidentally a valley that does not exist in the maps and encounters refugees from the second world war.
The realistic interpretations that the film offers to explain the event are not important. What is more decisive is the fact that Klopfenstein has confirmed in ever new approaches that a community to which people come together for whatever reason cannot do without power structures. A thoughtful, highly thought-provoking film. Hans-Dieter Seidel, FAZ
