"Goodbye, Lenin"

Ordinary people, in a certain artificial environment, have no choice but to adhere to the will of the majority of the group!
It is too difficult, really too difficult, for an ordinary person in the group life to take the step of independent thinking and independent exploration!

This group of ordinary people can be primitive hunting tribes or Berlin citizens separated by a wall!

A Berlin Wall can actually block for 40 years, which is daunting!
A Berlin Wall can be demolished overnight, which is daunting!

Everything comes from the Berlin Wall in the hearts of East and West Germans!

Only when the external environment migrates and ordinary people take that step and tear down the heart wall will it germinate and explode!

This is this film, using a political satire story to tell the process of ordinary people tearing down the wall by themselves!


In the 1990 World Cup, the significance of Germany winning the championship turned out to be so far-reaching!
Back then, I stayed up all night watching them hold the cup, but I didn't feel it at all!

    It's a good story to incorporate heavy and grand themes into everyday trivialities.

    A simple family is like a kaleidoscope, which allows us to see the shocks brought by the changes of modern history to people's lives, and allows us to see the generation of people who have gone from blind and overwhelmed to self-reliance and self-improvement under the torrent of the new era. struggle. More importantly, we can see the beauty of the eternal family affection under the changing times. When the mother gradually came into contact with this new world, she was deeply moved by her son's actions.

Good Bye Lenin! quotes

    [spoiler]

    Alexander Kerner: [voiceover] My mother outlived the GDR by three days. I believe it was a good thing she never learned the truth. She died happy. She wanted us to scatter her ashes to the winds. That's prohibited in Germany, both East and West. But we didn't care.

    [launches rocket]

    Alexander Kerner: She's up there somewhere now. Maybe looking down at us. Maybe she sees us as tiny specks on the Earth's surface, just like Sigmund Jähn did back then. The country my mother left behind was a country she believed in; a country we kept alive till her last breath; a country that never existed in that form; a country that, in my memory, I will always associate with my mother.
