We met Schwochow on the sidelines of a screening of his film “The German Lesson”, organized by the Goethe Institute Australia. We talk to him about the significance of the film “The German Lesson” in times of democratic challenges and about what is special about filming in Australia.
“It would be momentous not to address history anymore.”
