SPORTSFREUNDE – WE CAN START ANOTHER ROUND<br />
by Knud Vetten CONFLICTS | ETHNOLOGY | POLITICS | SPORTS | WAR&PEACE | PORTRAIT<br />
The film SPORTSFREUNDE – WE CAN START ANOTHER ROUND is about friendship in hopeless times: In<br />
the center is the journey of Peter Junge and Matthias Weise from Bitterfeld to Africa. The ‘sportsmanager’<br />
and the catholic priest fly to Kenya to visit their African friends Paul Thuo and Isaak Sang<br />
who are suffering after the war of ethnic groups, which shocked Kenya in 2007/08. They are also<br />
me<strong>mb</strong>ers of the 'Sports Club Bitterfeld’ and attend as marathon runners in Germany. With their prize<br />
money and donations they support their families at home. Until this journey the two East-Germans<br />
didn’t even suspected how deep the wounds of this conflict really were. The journey becomes an<br />
adventure between hope and resignation, friendship and hate. The film tells the story of fire-raisers,<br />
war-winners and good people.<br />
