From 2000 onwards the “National Socialist Underground” (NSU), a neo-Nazi terrorist network, carried out an unprecedented series of murders across Germany. For a long time–until the terrorist core cell exposed itself in 2011–the interpretive horizon of the media, politicians and the authorities did not consider racist motives. The investigations were without exception directed against the victims themselves and their family members, ignoring hints and statements by the witnesses suggesting white and presumably racist perpetrators.
A selection of videos, developed by initiatives and individuals, activist and artists, working in solidarity with those targeted by the series of murders and attacks by the NSU identify blind spots within the investigation and shed light on the racist conditions that allow right-wing networks to grow and make their actions possible in the first place.
