A story of sibling love ruptured by the Iron Curtain, by one of the most significant East German writers. It is 1960 and the border between East and West Germany has long been closed. "I will never forgive you," Uli says to his sister Elisabeth.
Disillusioned by life in the East, Uli also dreams of escape, while Elisabeth still holds out hope for the political project of the GDR. Their brother Konrad has already fled to the West. With physical checkpoints and ideological tensions between them, the siblings must navigate emotional rifts as they enter into a drama fueled by love in this unflinching portrayal of life in the early years of the German Democratic Republic.One of the most significant East German writers, Brigitte Reimann (1933-1973) wrote irreverent, autobiographical works that addressed issues and sensibilities otherwise repressed in the GDR.
