“Last Exit Gera”: stage for Beate Z. – ZEIT ONLINE

A bit fearful must be the ZDF have been like as Beate Zschäpe testified last Thursday. 54 questions from the Court had the main culprit in the NSU Trial answered in writing and now let everything read from her defender Hermann Borchert. Zschäpes voice has not heard any trial observers, even after three years of negotiations. A number of workers of the NSU has called them and the co-accused Andre E. heavily loaded. Otherwise said Zschäpe that they’ve been drinking champagne secretly that she could not have children, that Mundlos and Bönhardt had the same political views, that they loved Bönhardt and that she had ever had a bicycle accident and a railway pass.

The ZDF docudrama Last Exit Gera – Eight hours with Beate Zschäpe was not thwarted by their answers, however. On June 25, 2012 Beate Zschäpe allowed during their pre-trial detention to visit her sick grandmother. On the drive from the detention center Cologne to Gera, she was accompanied by two BKA officers. In the film, they are called Troller (Joachim Krol) and Dietrich (Christina Große). Zschäpes former defender Wolfgang Heer had ordered that have to take place no interrogation while driving. But was chatted a bit already. About this chat justified the BKA officials after driving to grandma Zschäpes a protocol that this docudrama is based now.

Smalltalk was everything; you have to talk for example about cats, the accompanying BKA later testified as a witness in court. For such a small talk to director Raymond Ley must have said, can make a script yet. The result is a mix of interviews with family members of the NSU murder victim, statements of Thuringia NPD functionary Patrick Wieschke, the Jena left politician Katharina König, nachgespielte testimonies from the NSU Trial and fictional scenes from the coexistence Zschäpe, Mundlos, Böhnhard – embedded in the drive to grandma. That sounds like Mainzer Allerlei.

The narcissistic facade

Producer Nico Hofmann says that the film is an attempt at a psychological approach to a woman, almost like a mask for one of the worst right-wing extremist crimes in the history of our country stand in court and an attempt to analyze and classify the NSU using many search that saw well beyond the person Beate Zschäpe. Certainly. Yet we would like to refrain from this attempt. You can not remember when a defendant counter hit such a big media interest in an ongoing court case itself.

“Our film looks,” says Ley, “behind the facade of the narcissistic Beate Zschäpe.” No, he looks just not behind; he served. What should be able to explain a docudrama, which previously could not shed light on Trial? Zschäpe is home to the obscure, the untouchable, unapproachable and unhappy woman who wants to have no knowledge of weapons and murders. Long since her has become the courtroom to the stage. You never know what role they will play.

time they appear in the pantsuit, even in T-shirt, sometimes she wears her hair almost Valkyrie way open again for girlish braid and with glitter clasp. Zschäpe is the honest petit bourgeois who wants a Jewish and alien free Germany, it is an evil, neglected by life 41-year-old girl, the woman from a humble background, a right-wing Snow White, which causes a whole range of feelings between revulsion and fascination.

eroticism of conscience

Ten murders go to the account of the NSU trio, and it begs the question whether it is really a good idea, this woman to help still further public through a docudrama. Lisa Wagner Beate Zschäpe has closely monitored; the look, the posture, the provocative silence, the oscillation between lascivious rigor and provocative serenity, between cold-blooded charm and charming coolness and yes, even the flashes of eroticism of conscience – all of which has Wagner, who has looked at processes at the Munich Higher Regional Court, good studied.

And she fears, “helping to ensure that you are concerned about fee and woman Zschäpe which indeed seems to enjoy it, and that the focus once again migrates from the victims to the perpetrators. The desire to understand and urge, but ultimately prevailed and led to rise to the challenge “.

perpetrator as Star

So could now but everything possible reasons. But not apologize for a long time. Here is 90 minutes a woman in the center, who simply do not belong there. Desire, urge and challenge: It would have been the greater power, not them to give way. Almost simultaneously to Leys docudrama the NSU protocols are read in a stage version in the Munich Kammerspiele. And also this year, the ARD will come up with a three-part series by Christian Schwochow about NSU. The first part of Anna Maria Mühe as Beate Zschäpe was just finished.

The Haunting reached the cinema, because the Munich Constantin Film has already taken the NSU history in attack. That would have Beate Zschäpe not blazoned in their brownest dreams that they once would be so famous. How morally degenerate is the film industry to make a perpetrator to a Star?

the assassinated with eight shots Nuremberg florist Enver Simsek, the killed with three shots Hamburger greengrocer Süleyman Taşköprü which is a targeted Headshot prostrate policewoman Michèle Kiesewetter this celebrity probably not happen.

“Last Exit Gera – Eight hours with Beate Zschäpe” runs on Tuesday, 26 January, at 20:15 clock in the ZDF
