“Mein Name ist Ausländer” (“My name is foreigner”), is the title of a poem by author Semra Ertan. In 1982, in protest against racism in the Federal Republic of Germany, the migrant worker from Turkey set herself on fire at the age of 25. Cana Bilir­Meier offers a portrayal of Ertan’s life through subtle montage of text fragments and footage mosaics. It is a patchwork of history shaped by essayistic storytelling.
