Die Unberührbare (2000)
Wonderful attack on double standards
1 January 2008 - 6 out of 8 users found this review helpful.
Exposed by openness- as depicted by the collapse of the wall. High minded Marxist and high life beneficiary travels west but is rejected as a fake. Returning east the same fate befalls her, travelling back and forth she descends into madness as her rejections mount.Degraded and rejected by the east and west
Some brilliant depictions of humiliation as she tries to return a posh coat to a exclusive shop only to be told no
The acting is magnificent from Hannelore Elsner It's shot in black and white which adds to the power of the story
A brilliant and harrowing tale perhaps too inevitable in it's outcome but the chain smoking makes up for that
