Wende Flicks: Last Films from East Germany
Wende Flicks showcases films made by East German filmmakers around the Wende (the Change), the period of drastic upheaval marked by the fall of the Berlin Wall. Covering the years 1988–1994, this series brings to light essentially forgotten films, many of which were never subtitled or screened outside of Germany.
The Mistake
(Heiner Carow, 1991)
The Land beyond the Rainbow
(Herwig Kipping, 1991)
In The Mistake, a man from Hamburg is arrested and deported when he is betrayed while secretly trying to visit his girlfriend in East Germany. The girlfriend knows who the informer is and begins to plot her revenge. From the director of The Legend of Paul and Paula. (100 mins., 35mm)
One of the most radically critical depictions of the GDR, Land beyond the Rainbow centers on the mythical village of Stalina, where, in 1953, the villagers rationalize injustice and their own despair by glorifying "real existing socialism." (89 mins., 35mm)
