Every era has its immigrants, people looking for a new homeland. The film illuminates the today of a nearly forgotten microcosm - a possible paradise?
When about 330 Tyroleans and 120 Rhinelanders migrated to the Peruvian jungle in the mid 19th century, they carried little luggage, but a lot of hope with them. 160 years later, mobility and migration are a constant topic not only of the past but of the present. Many other people have come to the once remote area, and the Tyrolean dialect has become rare. In this documentary the people of Pozuzo get to speak about their perceptions of home, identity and origins.—Helmut Groschup
