Synopsis
The movie consist of 13 separate episodes each handling a period between 1960 and 1970. The length of these periods varies from one day to some years. It tells the story of a group of people in Munich (mostly music and film students). Every episode focuses on a different character from the group, although the main storyline and character, the young composer Hermann, continues. The movie tells a story in many different levels about love, friendship, misfortune, loss, art, politics, history with important historic events of the decennium in the background. It was the most costly and ambitious drama production in German television, although very cinematographic. Believed to be partly autobiographic.
Review
This epic brings together a superbly-gifted cast and crew, a narrative
depth
superior to most novels, wonderful music, philosophy and a connection to
LIFE that I find difficult to explain. To immerse oneself in Die Zweite
Heimat is for me akin to a spiritual experience, similar to the awe one
gets
when looking at the stars in a clear night sky.
The language, and use of both colour and monochrome segments adds to the
dramatic impact. The film inspired me to go to Munich and visit some of
the
locations, including the Edgar Reitz office. From then on, I vowed to
improve my German skills - after Die Zweite Heimat I feel almost German,
as
if I am in the head of the characters. I also try to match the piano
playing
of Henry Arnold (Hermann), but this is the one thing that will always
elude
me ! This drama is unparalleled and I have been fortunate to see it on
BBC2
in the UK and SBS in Australia. The sequel, Heimat 3, is currently being
filmed in Germany.
