Maria is actually a very beautiful but very independent woman. In the fire before the fall of West Germany, she and Hermann only maintained their marriage for one day and one night.
Waiting in agony and hunger, and hearing the news of her husband's death, she finally let go of the burden in her heart and devoted herself to black people. Who's to say this isn't a wise choice? for surviving.
But by accident, Herman did not die. When she came back, she saw her having sex with a black officer. The scene was really silent. The man's piercing heartbreak is all in silence. In the end, Maria chose her husband and accidentally killed the black man. Herman took responsibility for this and went to prison.
Afterwards, Maria attracted Oswald, the owner of the factory, for a better life after her husband was released from prison in her heart, and had a wealth of property. Eventually Os died and her husband returned. After learning of Os's will, Maria realized that her marriage had long since vanished. In the end, the gas was lit in a trance, and the two returned to dust.
The contradiction between the soul and the body is so far. This kind of tragedy does not only appear in West Germany, but also in the celestial dynasties. Today, with the loss of valueism and spiritual ethics, many people think that they have reached a high level of taste, but they have already betrayed what they consider the most sacred. Please don't say I'm cynical or that I'm not qualified to say these things. I'm just, as a duckweed leaf, swinging while walking.

    Four and a half stars. The wedding ceremony in the ruins and the two scenes of Holman's coming home were handled too badly. The portraits of the former prime ministers of the Federal Republic of Germany appearing on the final screen clearly show the true intention of the director: what Maria is carrying is the tragedy of the entire nation and society, and this image reveals serious social issues. The film seems to be analyzing Maria's personality mutation, but it is actually refuting the serious crimes of the Nazi war.

    The remastered version makes the film look like a fashion claw horse indoor TV series. With a Fassbender-esque action zombie feel and creepy smile.
