- The Metalldetektor tells the story of Georg, an Austrian man who takes up metal detecting in his retirement. Curious about the story of a World War II-era B17 that crashed on a neighboring hillside - a crash witnessed by his mother while standing on their lawn - he ventures into the woods and, much to his surprise, immediately begins exhuming engine parts. What follows is an emotional journey into the difficult history of his town... ... into the lives of the American Airmen who perilously parachuted into this one-time enemy territory ... into locating and contacting their bewildered descendants ... into ultimately uniting the town and the families of these Airmen on the 75th anniversary of the crash. This story collides two very different perspectives on the past. In Austria, there persists the notion of Erinnerungskultur, or a "Culture of Remembrance." This is a duty felt by many Austrians to examine the atrocities of the war, what led to them, how they allowed them to happen, and how to prevent them from ever happening again. In America, by contrast, glorification of war is part of an elaborate economic and cultural mechanism at the very center of the country's identity, which leads to an occasional collective amnesia about war's darkest aspects. The Metalldetektor collides these perspectives, and its events yield a deeper understanding of the problems of the past, and their hidden bearings on the present and features excerpts from the Austrian performance of "Dad Fought Hitler, the Bottle and Me," a one-man-show by Mick Berry - whose father was aboard the very same B17 - which to Georg's delight when he first contacted Mick, had been written about the same crash 20 years prior to the anniversary.
