Festival history
R\'fcckenlage / Upside Down interprets the story of Rudolf Hesss mysterious flight to Scotland in 1941. The Deputy F\'fchrer of the Third Reich flew across alone, unannounced and uninvited, claiming he wanted to negotiate peace. Narrated through his many letters to his wife and family the film is a visual journey through Scotlands skies and a journey through the mind of Hess who spent the rest of his life in prison. \par
