Schockwellen. Nachrichten aus der Pandemie

Schockwellen. Nachrichten aus der Pandemie (2021) is a documentary film directed by Volker Heise.

Montage of news, reports, talk shows, live broadcasts, video blogs. Together, they form the basis for a polyphonic choir that intones, condenses and follows the story of the pandemic, from January 2020 to the present day, with a focus on Germany. A chronicle of devastation can be seen as well as a chronicle of discord and rebellion: against the virus, against fate, against reality.
