The film showcases personal stories of exclusion and racism, while also highlighting empowerment and the achievements of Black Germans throughout history. From Nazi survivor Theodor Wonja Michael to contemporary figures like rapper Samy Deluxe, the series challenges the question of "Where are you from?" and examines the colonial past and present-day issues of identity and belonging for Black Germans that parallels the struggles of Black-Americans which Martin Luther King Jr fought so hard to bring to the forefront of American consciousness.
