The Call

by Karl-Friedrich König (Germany)

Steffen and Ben have gone on a missionary tour throughout the godless land of East-Germany. The Christian denomination was only recently joined by Steffen, who is now expected to prove himself accompanied by the more experienced Ben. Pairing bible-believing strictness with teenage slang and Christian hip-hop, the two of them are off to to make Jesus known in the rural villages. When Steffen turns out to fail in his public prayers and preachings, however, a dangerous dynamic starts to form between the unequal men.

But the bears are ashamed to seek the help of a boar – they can manage on their own. It turns out that it's all a little different than they thought.
