You do not know exactly why, why, why. The usual anniversary indicators do not give her rudimentary that it is precisely this weekend once again reminds of this great German political scandal. Does not change.
Achtundzwanzigeinviertel years after the death of Uwe Barschels ARD admits her Saturday evening program completely. And sends instead Florian Silbereisen folk music in case of former Prime Minister Kieler first as well three-hour political drama. On top of it there is in connection still a half-hour documentary. There is then quite properly, objectively, public law go.
But first must all still have a go. Barschel, Reiner Pfeiffer, the RAF, the Stasi, Werner Mauss, the private investigator, Helmut Kohl and his donations, Oliver North of the CIA, the Contras of Nicaragua, Iran, the Mossad, the murder of Olof Palme, dolle journalists corrupt journalists, pretty journalists with a bad conscience – everything, absolutely everything has its place in a factory, the director Kilian Riedhof has made claims to mainly because it has not yet no other
Because we did so all missed a film still and after all these years, “the the” worked up important scandal of recent German history “(ARD); the reality finally paired with what to many has always thought. And then a large bag fiction about it pours. Betrayal, deception, trust, mistrust, love, fear, integrity, loss. Sex, of course. Even the large, done in reality, of course, “cinematic” film, from which all TV producers dream when night can not sleep.
For normal viewers only right for the person familiar with the ARD age group that had the case Barschel almost already forgotten all regular anniversary documentaries defiance, this three-hour film fireworks however, is a bit of a pain.
the main reason is that director Riedhof who ever an ordinary Münster-scene (” Wolf hour “) has delivered, it has a bit too well-intentioned. A little too in love with his subject. And in one of his star witness. The former Lübeck Attorney Heinrich Wille, who has followed the case Barschel least so doggedly working hours, as the journalist David Burger, played by Alexander Fehling.
will have the director served as one of two specialist consultants who adhere to each different explanations for the death of Uwe Barschels. And because the absurd thesis for a feature film is the better usually, Kilian Riedhof follows the murder theorists will in his work much more intense than the previous “Hamburger Abendblatt” reporter Herbert Wessels, who accompanied the event Barschel journalistically and the murder theory for a full-blown fantasy holds.
Riedhof other hand, sees the case Barschel rather the “terrible secret”. Power Verliebtes, abused innocent in Bath.
Consequently, the film shows the former Kieler Prime Minister (Matthias Matschke makes really good) as a pioneer international arms smuggling, in addition to him the federal government and the BND are inaugurated. As Geheimnisträger this rank of ex-Prime Minister brings in Geneva Hotel “Beau Rivage” of course not have to worry, but is executed by a death squad, which then draped his victim in said bath and then disappears.
the matter is not over, however. You really begins. is now off the political drama a media drama in which at last come also the hitherto empty handed supporters of “lying press” -Vorwurfs their money.
To visit two journalists who should remember at first glance to Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein of the “Washington post”. In the cinematic reality but then dive, only the zealous David Burger (Alexander Fehling) Barschels murderers afterwards. His colleague Olaf nits (Fabian Hinrichs) sabotages the other hand in an infamous manner Burgers hard research work, which is at least as nasty as the role of femme fatale in the movie. Antje Traue as Giselle Neumayer, sexy, but also exhausting.
As the entire film, the viewers in the end also to Beirut, the Hamburg ” Hotel Atlantic “and leads to the Ohlsdorf cemetery. Somehow you wait any moment to make an appearance of Nick Czech Iller. The remains of, but that’s forgivable given the almost self-deprecating end of this mammoth work.
Who exhausted falls film and documentation to bed, probably missed all the best , On the Internet there is for this film go haywire. For conspiracy theorists Christmas and Easter is on this day that is the same.
