Gundermann tells the story of a digger operator who writes songs. He is a poet, a clown and an idealist. He dreams and hopes, loves and struggles. He is a spy who is spied upon, a do-gooder who does not know any better. He is conflicted. Gundermann is both a music film and a love story; a drama about guilt and entanglement, about suppression and confrontation. Gundermann is a film about a sense of home. It takes a new look back at the GDR, a country that has disappeared. It is not too late – in fact, it is about time. (Berlinale)
