René, Sabine and Daniel are members of the German nationalist group Pegida. Pegida protesters have been gathering in Dresden for their weekly Monday marches in order to demonstrate and proclaim their patriotic views.“Merkel Must Go” and “We Are The People” are their most common exclamations. Born in Dresden, Sabine Michel follows the protagonists for one year, attends demonstrations with them and tries to understand and capture the people behind the nationalist movement. MERKEL MUST GO searches for individual motivations for supporting a patriotic worldview and depicts the absurd as well as the real fears of our present time.
