How it feels

A Danish documentary follows a couple on the island of Mando who host Polish children from Silesia for respite. The film then travels with the children back to their polluted home region, where industrial waste has created a grim environment with severe health problems.

What happens

Hverken Gud eller Satan er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1990 med instruktion og manuskript af Anette E. Olsen. Et ægtepar på Mandø modtager polske børn på rekreation. De kommer fra Schlesien, hvor livsødelæggende forurening er resultatet af årtiers satsning på industrien. Filmholdet tager med børnene tilbage til områdets grimme, beskidte og røgfyldte miljø. Her lever 3 millioner mennesker i dødens skygge. Børn fødes og dør for tidligt, livstruende sygdomme udvikles - åndenøden er bogstaveligt talt et problem for livets opretholdelse.
