In the movie Senada suffers an injustice when she loses her child, but from the description the German couple have not committed a crime. In "Returning to Haifa" and even more so in Scar of David, the Palestinian parents have suffered a crime.
Older Germans like to believe they can support Israel to atone for German Nazism and sympathize with Palestinians to ameliorate or to correct an injustice.
This unsophisticated German approach is unethical because it does not address Zionist criminality, which differs little from and is even worse than that of German Nazism.
True atonement for German Nazism requires categorical commitment to the abolition of the Zionist state as well as to the arrest and trial of Zionist perpetrators of crimes against humanity, for Zionism is ethnic Ashkenazi Nazism.

Warchild, the second part of Christian Wagner's planned Balkan Blues Trilogy, describes the dilemma of the people whose lives were ruptured by the Bosnian conflict. Thirty-year-old Senada tries to find peace after the war. In the whirlwind of the conflict, she has been separated from her then two-year-old daughter Aida, who has since been listed as missing. But Senada refuses to give up her search and finds out that she's been given to German foster parents. After a harrowing illegal border crossing to Ulm, a town in Southern Germany, Senada finds her: now 12 and renamed Kristina, being raised by a well-to-do German couple. As she observes her daughter from a cafe near their home, Senada discovers she can't trust anyone.
