Sand und Blut plot
Young refugees from Syria and Iraq tell in private images found online how their carefree life turned into a war hell. This montage of videos, mostly filmed with telephones, at times bizarre, aptly illustrates the emergence of chaos, the rise of tribal struggles, the influence of jihadism and other excesses of hatred, which just drive whole families apart. The young people interviewed in an Austrian refugee camp comment on the fragments off-screen, thus providing an insight into their lives before and after the outbreak of all the misery.
