Fossil

Directed by Henning Beckhoff

With Markus Hering, Ruth Reinecke, Victoria Schulz, Sohel Altan Gol and Godehard Giese

Michael, an open-pit miner, refuses to accept the fact that coal is being phased out. He doesn’t want things to change. Working in an open-pit mine is more than just a job to him. He tries to convince his co-workers to join in his protest of the changes afoot, but by not being able to let go, he gets less and less support — even from his family.
