I have been admiring it for a long time, but after watching it, it still makes me sigh. The politicization of Germany has nothing to do with me, it's a world far away from me, I don't know, and it's normal to not care.
This lie started out of love for his mother, but in fact, for the son, it was just a nostalgia for the good old days. Every time when the lie was almost exposed, he always came up with this or that lie to continue, in fact, it was himself who was really addicted to it. Those childhood days, those simple times, those pasts. Although he now has a new life and a rich life, what he really misses is the era he spent with his mother.
Humans are small, and in this huge social torrent, only one or two people can stand at the forefront and influence the times, or be manipulated by the times and become a turning point. But the real majority of people just accept it blindly, reluctantly or willingly, that's how we live. To live, not to live according to what way. This may be a process of shattering dreams, but it is also a process of growth.
So, nostalgia is actually a disease. Habit is a powerful set, but it is also an extremely simple process.
In the end we can only say goodbye.

In the fall of 1989, Christina suffered a sudden heart attack and passed out.

In order not to attack his sick mother, Alex had to carefully conceal the news of the resignation of the German Communist Party and the reunification of Germany, pretending that the Berlin Wall was still standing. So in their small apartment, Alex tried his best to perform a farce of the prosperity of the GDR, from food to clothing, and even fake TV news, although the outside world has changed a lot, but this small History seems to have stagnated in the world, or the son rewrites and creates history through his love for his mother... and disintegrates.
