25 years after Germany’s separation has ended two young actors both born during the time of reunification set out to discover: What was good, what was bad in the old Federal Republic of Germany and in German Democratic Republic? How did consumption and communism shape the people of these two nations and how did Germans see each other? Celebrity and non-celebrity witnesses of the time provide us with insights into the life and culture of the FRG and the GDR.
