Dear Fritz

the author Fritz Habeck

"How I’m feeling? God, there are different situations in life, this is just one, yes. Sitting here, being filmed, should I regard myself as an author? Certainly not, because being an author I have all well in hand, in this case I’m at your mercy, how I’m doing? Well, at best as an actor."

With the portrait of the today 79 years old and almost completely forgotten Austrian author Fritz Habeck the two documentarists Joerg Th. Burger and Andreas Weber dig their way not only through a remarkable biography, but also to the roots of what documentary stands for: What’s the idea of all that?
