Film series|From Cold War to the Peaceful Revolution 1989: Germany’s Long Road to Unity Through Cinema
When the Berlin Wall fell in November 1989, people were singing and celebrating the newfound freedom for East Germany. The Cold War was ended, the socialist one-party regime of the GDR had to step down and the way was clear for Germany’s reunification. The moving image programme Winds of Change depicts Germany’s long and winding road from the early years of the GDR to the peaceful revolution with six important films, exemplifying the courage, perseverance and faith that led to the Germany of today. Tickets are available at URBTIX from 9 December.
