The focus of the film "Souvenir" is Alfred D., who calls himself a "Democracy Exporter". For more than twenty years, Alfred has worked for German foundations around the world to promote democratic awareness and the rule of law and to record his missions on film. He has also staged himself in front of the camera again and again, most recently his election campaign for candidacy as a member of the European Parliament of the SPD in his Swabian home constituency. —Alfred Diebold
