Les aventures de Werner Holt
7.8
Deux jeunes de 17 ans, Werner Holt et Gilbert Wolzow, sont sortis de l'école et sont entrés dans l'armée de Hitler. Gilbert devient un soldat fanatique, mais au début, Werner commence à comprendre le caractère insensé de la guerre. Lorsque Gilbert est pendu par les SS, Werner tourne son arme sur sa propre armée. Ce film, basé sur le roman de Dieter Noll, est un chef-d’œuvre politique et artistique. Sa franchise fraîche et surprenante à propos de la guerre des péages touche les jeunes qui ont trouvé une grande résonance auprès du public après la sortie du film.

Ernst Thälmann - Sohn seiner Klasse
5.1
This film is the first of a two-part historical and biographical portrait of the communist politician and anti-fascist Ernst Thälmann. In early November 1918, Ernst Thälmann is an unwilling soldier serving on the western front. As the revolutionary movement at home is threatened by the betrayal of the Social Democrats and fissures in the working class, Thälmann calls on his fellow soldiers to put down their weapons and unite with the workers in the communist struggle at home. Thälmann’s qualms about which side he is fighting on continue, but when the local police attempt to prevent a shipment of provisions and supplies from reaching the people in Petrograd, he intervenes and the ship is unloaded. With this moment of clarity, Thälmann continues to follow his political convictions and joins the workers at the Hamburg uprising in October 1923.

He is forced to go to Southern Germany, where he convenes with revolting farmers. But his way leads him back to Thuringia. In 1525, he and Heinrich Pfeiffer form the centre of the Thuringian peasant uprising in Mühlhausen, but their success is diminished by the fact that peasants and craftsmen don′t seem to be able to work together.
