Operation Spring

Angelika Schuster, Tristan Sindelgruber
A suspensful thriller of a documentary about a police investigation and court proceedings against Africans suspected of belonging to a Nigerian drug ring. New laws were implemented and new methods of investigation were put to the test for the first time. The film poses the question of whether the defendants ever stood a chance of receiving a fair trial.
