''Akte Grüninger'' is a Swiss-Austrian feature film produced in 2013 for the Swiss television SRF.

Plot In August 1938, Switzerland closed its borders to Jewish refugees who tried to evade the Nazi regime. Migration of Jewish people across the '' green border'' to Switzerland was declared by the Swiss government to be illegal, and refugees were sent back to Germany and Austria.

These "illegal migrations" and the background of the border crossings, and its support by officials and citizens in Switzerland, got the attention of the Swiss immigration police.

A K&D Selection
A, or a, is the first letter and the first vowel of the Latin alphabet, used in the modern English alphabet, the alphabets of other western European languages and others worldwide. Its name in English is ''a'' (pronounced ), plural ''aes''. It is similar in shape to the Ancient Greek letter alpha, from which it derives. The uppercase version consists of the two slanting sides of a triangle, crossed in the middle by a horizontal bar. The lowercase version can be written in two forms: the double-storey a and single-storey ɑ. The latter is commonly used in handwriting and fonts based on it, especially fonts intended to be read by children, and is also found in italic type. In English grammar, " a", and its variant " an", are indefinite articles. History The earliest certain ancestor of "A" is aleph (also written 'aleph), the first letter of the Phoenician alphabet, which consisted entirely of consonants (for that reason, it is also called an abjad to distinguish it fro ...
