Leeds Inspired

Das Deutsche Volk (The German People) 18 TBC

27th April 2026
Hyde Park Picture House

Director Marcin Wierzchowski accompanies the victims’ loved ones as they navigate grief and loss, documenting their struggle for justice, their calls for acknowledgement and their determination not to be treated as second-class citizens. They expose the structural racism expressed not only in the crime itself but also how they are treated by the authorities.

Director Marcin Wierzchowski accompanies the victims’ loved ones as they navigate grief and loss, documenting their struggle for justice, their calls for acknowledgement and their determination not to be treated as second-class citizens. They expose the structural racism expressed not only in the crime itself but also how they are treated by the authorities.

As politicians search for the right words and many questions regarding the crime go unanswered, those left behind set out to find answers themselves. Together, they reconstruct the events of the night of the attack, endeavor to ensure it is not forgotten and demand consequences. As time passes public awareness wanes, yet the families continue their fight: a fight for justice, a fight to remember those who were murdered.

This screening will be followed by a Q&A, and discussion, between director Marcin Wierzchowski and Paul Leworthy, Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at the School of Modern Languages, Newcastle University.

This event has been generously supported by the Heinrich Böll Foundation, The Goethe Institute, and the DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service).
