In the wake of right-wing populist electoral successes in Europe, violent right-wing extremists are organizing themselves worldwide. The documentary takes us through three countries - Germany, France and Belgium - and focuses on the battle cry of the "great replacement". For right-wing extremist parties and groups, there is only one solution: the deportation of people with a migration background. 2024: Against the backdrop of an acute migration crisis and low voter turnout, right-wing populist parties in Europe have been able to establish themselves permanently in the political landscape: as governing parties in Italy and Hungary, in a governing coalition such as in Sweden, or with clear electoral successes in France, the Netherlands - and now also in Germany. The right-wing extremists of the 21st century have polished up their image: in talk shows, for example, they appear neat and polite, smiling friendly - a sheep's clothing strategy, because their ideology is as radical as ever. In the wake of xenophobia, a "White Power" movement has formed that supports the political struggle with a willingness to use violence: primarily verbal, but increasingly also with physical attacks. Over the last ten years, the number of racially motivated acts of violence has risen steadily. Violent organizations and right-wing populists have a common battle cry: the "great replacement." A conspiracy theory of the right-wing scene according to which migrants as invaders would exterminate the "white race." Across Europe, the right-wing is pursuing the comprehensive and final deportation of people with a migrant background. Christophe Cotteret's documentary paints a portrait of the right-wing radical scene in Europe. The journey takes us to Germany, one of the countries with the most avowed right-wing extremists, to Belgium and finally to France, where almost half of all racially motivated acts of violence in Europe have officially been registered. The right-wing extremists now form a political family that is growing inexorably and shaking the foundations of the weakened European democracy.
