What happens

Doichlanda è un film documentario del 2003 diretto da Giuseppe Gagliardi. Il viaggio musicale di una band etno-rock nei ristoranti calabresi in Germania. Un viaggio che racconta, attraverso le facce degli emigranti, i cambiamenti, le trasformazioni e le contraddizioni di una dinamica culturale di estremo interesse. Doichlanda è il modo in cui gli emigrati calabresi usano chiamare la Germania e indica anche un luogo che offre nuove possibilità di lavoro. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
