I mitten av 1800-taletemigrerade hundratusentals fattiga människor från Tyskland och Europa till Sydamerika. En desperat handling för att fly från den fattigdom och despotism som rådde i hemlandet. Två bröder inser att det bara är drömmar som kan rädda dem. Den yngre av dem, Jakob, ger liv åt sina tankar i sin dagbok där han reflekterar över livet som möter honom; föräldrarna, hans bror Gustav och Henriette, kvinnan i hans liv.<br/><br/>Det andra Heimat är en svepande och episk berättelse om utvandringen av tyska bönder och hantverkare till "den nya världen". Som Jakob skriver i sin dagbok: "Kan man ha en högre målsättning i livet än att följa den rätta vägen och fly från tyranni och hänsynslöshet?"

In the fictional Hunsrueck village of Schabbach in 1840, inhabitants struggle with crippling poverty brought on by food shortages and years of bad harvests. The Simon family are particularly affected as patriarch and local blacksmith Johann (Rüdiger Kriese) struggles to put enough food on his family's table despite his best efforts. His son Jakob (Jan Dieter Schneider) tries to keep his head in books and out of his father's wrath but Johann favours his more practical older brother Gustav (Maximilian Scheidt) and berates Jakob for his perceived laziness. Young Jakob dreams of travelling to explore foreign lands and, like many others in the rural region, is tempted to leave by the promise of land in South America from the powerful Portuguese Empire.<br/><br/><i>Typ: DVD</i>
