Renate Brausewetter

In "Menschen Untereinander" ("The Folk Upstairs"), director Gerhard Lamprecht sketches a cross-section of Germany's new post-war society, with its winners, social climbers, and losers, represented by the social microcosm of an apartment building. The gossip-mad Frau Mierig (Lydia Potechina) from the rear building gives the newly-arrived Frau Kaminski (Käthe Haack), the janitor's wife, a lively initiation into the tenants and their peculiarities.

Alors qu'un meurtre vient d'avoir lieu dans son quartier, Martin apprend qu'un cousin doit revenir en Allemagne. La nouvelle déclenchant chez lui de terribles cauchemars au cours desquels il assassine sa femme, il débute une psychanalyse.

Silent epic on the final years of Frederick II.
