Loveparade: The Trial
2020 · Documentary · 89 min. · Germany
On 24 July 2010, the Loveparade in Duisburg ends in a catastrophe: 21 people lose their lives and 652 are injured as mass panic breaks out at the festival. More than 7 years later, in December 2017, the court case for legal reappraisal of the catastrophe begins. 'Loveparade: The Trial' follows the case up close with a host of protagonists who are themselves involved in the proceedings. The film documents one of the most complicated criminal trials in post-war German history, from its first day to its very last.
