The dream of a common future without borders
Do we actually know each other? What do we value about our Europe? What do we want to preserve and what do we want to develop further? People in different regions of Europe have stories that connect and divide them, they have different collective identities and cultures. "Our Europe" shows the reality that is experienced every day in the countries. A reality that is shaped by Europe. The author Robert Krieg visits friends, between 33 and 55 years old, whom he has known for a long time. They are rooted in their regions, love their homeland and see themselves as Europeans. The film delves into their everyday lives and portrays their view of Europe.
Despite all their differences, all these people want a common Europe. They want a just Europe in which the dream of a common future without borders between landscapes, cultures and people is already partly a reality. A Europe in which values of tolerance, a culture of dialogue, the rule of law and human rights apply. They want to preserve the peace that Europe has given us for 70 years. We must continue the conversation, with all people from all countries of Europe, because only in conversation do we get to know each other. If we only want to.
