„This past projects  into our present. Even if it is surpressed, distorted, denied, it is present.“

The aftermaths of the holocaust affect the second and third generations - daughters, sons, grandchildren, who have to live with the fact that their families were killed in the concentration camps. The documentary „Eine lästige Gesellschaft“ („A undesireable society“) shows the painstaking search of director Marika Schmiedt for her relativess who were prosecuted during the National Socialism. The audience is included into her research, thus challenged to share the weight of the destructions so many Austrians have been involved in, if "only" by silence and passivity. The destructions live on today. The filmdocuments how crucially the fascist ideology of the past constitutes the attitude of contemporary society . Stereotypes and clichees unvariably exist and influence the minds of majority.

Marika Schmiedt dedicated this film to her grandmother.

At the age of  31, Amalia Horvath, a young woman, was murdered at the concentration camp Ravensbrück. She was killed like many other (Austrian) Roma and Sinti who were deported to the concentration camps immediately after Austria's „Anschluss“ to the national socialist German Reich.
