2m 2s
On top of the Bürglkopf mountain in Tyrol, far off the beaten track at an altitude of 1,300 meters, a return counselling center accommodates asylum seekers. With the help of return counselling, but above all under the pressure of indefinite isolation, the aim is to convince them to leave Austria. The idyllic Alpine landscape becomes the stage for a bizarre encounter between refugees, villagers, and tourists, as the nearest mountains in Kitzbühel are primarily used for winter sports. While state-of-the-art gondolas carry vacationers from around the world to the peaks, the residents of the Bürglkopf must endure a three-hour walk to get from the camp to the valley. The film provides an insight into European border policies, which culminate in return centers and deportation camps.
