Black Austrians are not only confronted with exotic attributions and prejudices, but also constantly receive unwanted attention. Playing with children, in conversations with psychologists, and with his father’s wise advice on the search for truth, Mwita Mataro as protagonist and co-director talks about childhood memories of Lake Fuschl, recalls the killing of Marcus Omofuma, and tells of being fed-up with anti-racist art projects.
