Le Prince
Monika, a curator in in her mid-forties, is firmly anchored in the art and culture scene in Frankfurt. One evening, against the backdrop of a police raid in the station district, she meets the Congolese businessman Joseph, who is looking for investors for a diamond mine in the Congo, and an intense love affair develops between the two. The relationship is put to the test not only by the prejudices of those around them, but also by a slowly growing distrust between the two. And increasingly, their lives reflect existing postcolonial conflicts, which raises the question of whether an equal partnership is even possible.
