for a viewer from Eastern Europe, it is a special film. not for the story itself or for performances but for the great themes who are opportunities for not ignore the past. because the nostalgia for the image of a better past, the every day realities under Communism, the need to escape from the pressure of dictatorship in its different aspects and, after 1990, to adapt yourself to the democratic values are basic things who impose !Good Bye Lenin !" as a must see. the film works with simple fragments of facts. and it does it in admirable manner. so, an useful film. especially for the memory of a viewer from East.
