The Fifth Point Of The Compass. Searching for my son's essence
On 1 June 2009 a passenger plane from Air France crashed into the Atlantic Ocean. The filmmaker's cousin Georg, returning from Brazil, was among the 228 dead.
Georg grew up as an adopted child in a small village in the Dolomites and had travelled to Salvador da Bahia in order to find his birth-mother.
Years later, his adoptive brother Markus is setting out on his own journey, searching for his roots.
