A thorough analysis of fascism and its enduring influence in modern Germany’s liberal politics, the film features statements by human rights activist Birgitta Wolf, political scientist Reinhard Kühnl, an immigrant worker named Fontana, Arno Behrisch, a former political refugee from fascist Germany and later a politician, psychologist Walter Jaide, anti-fascist socialist advocate and political scientist Wolfgang Abendroth, and Fred Schofs, a former member of the International Brigades in Spain. The broadcast of this film was cancelled two days before it was supposed to be aired on Swedish television. A newspaper described it as a “socio-critical program about neo-Nazism in the Federal Republic of Germany, which is also critical towards social democrats”. Dürfen sie wiederkommen?, frightening in its actuality, will be shown publicly for the first time on the occasion of the Courtisane festival, with newly created English subtitles.
