Was bleibt

A television documentary by Lotta Pommerien for SWR

Images of destroyed homes, injured soldiers and grieving families reach us every day. But who brings us these reports, and how do they live with what they witness? The documentary follows journalists Silke Diettrich, Juliane Tutein and Simone Schlindwein as they report from crisis regions across India and Afghanistan, Belarus and Ukraine, and Uganda and Congo. It explores how they navigate patriarchal structures, dictatorships and terrorist organisations while moving between dangerous assignments and private life — and how being women shapes their work.
