ARRIVÄDERCI is a documentary-hybrid series about the emotional climate of present-day Germany. Director Rocco Di Mento, an Italian filmmaker living in Germany for 18 years now, confronts an uncomfortable question: stay or leave — in times of a political shift to the right?
On his road trip, Rocco and the Berlin chatbot Dennis — a digital embodiment of the city’s famously blunt “Berliner Schnauze” — encounter people in their everyday lives across Germany. With humor, empathy, and irony, the series paints an honest portrait of a society caught between uncertainty, defiance, and hope.
