Drama, Comedy // 2003 // Wolfgang Becker // 121 minutes
A moving tragicomedy that illuminates the upheavals of German reunification with great sensitivity and humour. The film is told from the perspective of young Alex, who faces the challenges of a new reality with dedication and creativity. It deals with love, loyalty and the question of how far one can go to protect someone. With a mixture of nostalgia, social criticism and emotional depth, Good Bye, Lenin! is not only a portrait of an era, but also a story about family and the power of memory.
