In southern Carinthia, about ninety percent of all inhabitants spoke Slovenian before 1910. Today it is on average a single digit percentage.

What must politicians do to counteract the disappearance of a language whose protection is enshrined in the Austrian constitution.

The crisis of western democracies is ubiquitous and recovery not on the horizon. Accompanying people from various European countries, the film is on the search for the reasons behind the alarming situation.
