Résumés(1)
Henryk Wichmann, 33, member of the CDU party has been working as an opposition representative in the Brandenburg state parliament since 2009. The film follows him over the course of one year, observing his work in parliament and his constituency Uckermark/Upper Havel. There he visits schools, senior fairs, the Federal Armed Forces and local business enterprises. He has to deal with labour deficit, faces troubles with the Deutsche Bahn and illegal dumpsites as well as with the Lesser Spotted Eagle and the Bearded Tit. Actually, he prefers to be where it hurts the most – at the base. Almost 10 years after VOTE FOR HENRYK! Andreas Dresen gets us up to speed. A new tragicomical documentary about what political work and democracy in harsh practice really mean – in the plenum and hallways of parliament and in the daily routine in the constituency.
