Das zweite Leben des Friedrich Wilhelm Georg Platow (1973)

01 Jun 1973 • Comedy, Drama • 1h 30m

From the initial sweep of a line of Trabbies waiting for train crossing to the daily rituals of Central European lower middle class salt of the earth workers through the 1969s mod/beatnik East German rock music scene to the political reality of communist ideology in the classroom ... this movie brings it all into focus via a wonderful tale of a man who has been made redundancy by the electrification of the East German railwayCaught it on Kanopy
