Director: Farkas Zoltán Hajdú, Gábor Balog Screenplay: Farkas Zoltán Hajdú Director of photography: Gábor Balog Editor: Lilian Uchlaczky Sound: Vince Kapcsos Production manager: Miklós Szederkényi Producer: Sándor Buglya Production company: Dunatáj Alapítvány Ninety percent of the Saxons have left their motherland since World War II. Today there are only fifteen thousand of them left, with an average age of sixty. Can the self-imposed disintegration of a people be interpreted as betrayal? Two intellectuals from among the Saxon people, the writer Hans Bergel and the pastor Eginald Schlattner, try to provide an answer to this question. Those that had been to prison and work camps and remained in the motherland share their ideas about leaving, identity, fears and imprisonment. 2005 - 36th Hungarian Film Week: Best Documentary 2005 - Association of Hungarian Documentary Directors: Camera Prize 2006 - Hungarian Film Critics' Prize: Best Documentary of 2005 Festivals: 2005 - Budapest Hungarian Film Week (in competition)
