Storyline
Featured review
Youth in Communist Eastern Germany
This very good documentary tells about youngsters in a country that does not exist anymore: Communist Eastern Germany (DDR). That ceased to exist in 1990.
We see a number of more or less well-known people, telling about their youth in the DDR. With subjects like the state-influence on their education, school, sex, culture, and ... their problems after 1990 -- when they had to adapt themselves to the very different ways of Western society.
These stories are richly illustrated with scenes of DDR journals, propaganda- and other films. Including Erich Honecker, the DDR-boss of those days.
This documentary has a pretty speedy tempo, that matches the world of youth & adolescence. A pleasure to watch, even if you don't understand the German language.
