This documentary film was made at the end of 1989, originally as part of a scientific project devised by American university professors John Borneman and Jeffrey M.Peck. The study is oriented towards the issue of German Jewish emigrants who, after the Second World War, decided to return to Germany. It was published in book form in the spring of 1994. Since, in the former GDR, this topic was never fully broached, the director of the film decided to devote his time talking to these emigrants who decided to return to a „better“ Germany, as they so believed. The first part of the interviews was made in September and October 1989 and it was also one of the first opportunities to bring this theme out into the open beyond the Berlin Wall. A year later, the film crew went back to visit their subjects in order to find out whether the reunification of Germany had changed their lives.
