View
One sister who belonged to the closer circle of RAF. The was also involved in an attack on the NATO Supreme Allied Commander Haig, to Yemen and after Haig Assassination dived after the Ponto-murder in the GDR, there built a new life under a different name, was unmasked after the Wall fell and because of the was condemned murder of Ponto.
“Everything about it was inconceivable”
She had confessed, she came in 1996 to probation. Susanne Albrecht also had therefore may occur in the movie of her sister. That does not happen. They speak no more about it, and the “private all attempts have failed miserably,” says Julia, who has worshiped her big sister – and was completely forgotten by her
The film puts this family at the center that. stands since the murder of Ponto, Julia’s godfather, in the shadow of the atrocity, almost it breaks, is it taken as hostage – and mandated for nearly forty years in order to cope with what happened
“It was indeed. everything from A to Z, it inconceivable, “says Christa, the mother who is almost boring questioned by the subsidiary, at the time indeed 13 years old then, as to the slipping of her older sister made the best hamburgers in the ratios could come terror, what happened between the families.

Julia Albrecht mixed into the old pictures of German television to the murder and private snapshots and Super-8 sequences of the house of Albrecht to make all plastic.
On the one hand. On the other hand, however, to the discrepancy between familial well-being – you played tennis and polo, grilled in the garden, swimming in their own pool – and to illustrate the radical nature of terrorist crime, in short: to illustrate the abyss that had opened with the murder .
After a forty-five minutes says Matthias that he had felt as a victim, as “second-class victims”. This is understood to mean, the film does not press on the tear gland, to trigger empathy for this perception. Yet the audience also family therapy Angängen lives with a certain extent, the result is no longer close to the crime, but very, very close to the family of a former terrorist. This film can take hostage.
