SUMMARY

"Schoolteacher is missed" / "Family in despair!" / "Even Interpol searches for missing teacher " / "Corpse found in the wood - crime-scene?” These and other headlines covered the local newspapers at the beginning of the Seventies in Dortmund, Germany.
The police file "Death of Jürgen Schnitger " was closed, with the annotation: "Case Unsolved".
40 years later the son starts a cinematic search for his father and brings him back to life through emotional interviews.
The trip into the past leads him to a post-war Germany in the in the fifties and sixties.
At the end he gains knowledge, that could never ever be found in an official investigation file.
The people who used to know his father, allow the filmmaker to look into the past time, the feelings and thinkings of those times. Some of the persons who were interviewed had passed away, during the postproduction of the film. Director Jörg Schnitger had the chance to get answers to his burning questions, just in time.
