Ingo Helm

A retrospective on the great election battles of the past in the United States: the Kennedy-Nixon debate in 1960, the first ever to be televised; the Republican campaign of 1972, which proved to be the starting point for the Watergate scandal; and the electoral strategy of Barack Obama in 2008, the first election to fully exploit the potential of the Internet.

The ARD Middle-East correspondent Kurt Stenzel was already in Mogadishu ahead of the "Landshut." He was the only television reporter to have experienced the last twenty hours up to the raid of the plane. The film roles he brought to Germany the next day were kept and were technically reprocessed in this film by Ingo Helm.

This documentary deals with the abduction of the "Landshut" in October 1977. Based on original recordings of reporting from Mogadishu at the time, as well as and interviews with the hostages from 1980, the events are portrayed to give a unique, personal perspective to the hijacking.
