Pope Benedict XVI, born Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger, is the 265th Pope. On his first official visit in his native Germany as the sovereign of the Vatican City State and the leader of the Catholic Church, all official media are concentrated on this unique event. But in Thomas Heise’s film we do not get to see any of the official pictures. What we see is how the machine of the state exercising its control functions.
