20 Years Later: Wall Fall Film Double Bill

Posted: October 29, 2009

On November 9th, CCGES will be presenting a double-bill of wall-related films to mark the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Sonnenallee (Sun Alley, 1999) is a seriocomic look at a group young East Berliners growing up in the shadow of the wall in the 1970’s, while Good Bye Lenin! (2003) sees a young man try to recreate everyday East German life for his mother, a loyal supporter of East German socialism, who has missed this dramatic historical turn because of illness.
