TO LOSE AND TO FIND

Roman Pernack
Germany, 2019, 28 Min

Many believe Lusatia's Sorbian heritage to be long lost and yet there are individuals who continue to find something: be that connections to their history, family, a calling or simply: home. The premiere screening of a newly-released Łužyca production.

The Sorbian language: a boatman in the Spreewald who takes care to cultivate his Sorbian roots and yet can't speak it. A teacher who, though she wasn't exposed to it as a child, today makes every effort to promote its dissemination. A frantic reporter who, in passing it on to his children, sometimes feels isolated within the wider community. And a linguist whose interest in “minority languages” takes him to Lusatia. Everyday observations and the question: what is it that makes one Sorbian? Family and local background or language? GL
