Description
A dedicated young German boy pulls off an elaborate scheme to keep his mother in good health in this comedy drama from director Wolfgang Becker. Suffering a heart attack and falling into a coma after seeing her son arrested during a protest, Alex's (Daniel Brühl) socialist mother, Christiane (Katrin Sass), remains comatose through the fall of the Berlin wall and the German Democratic Republic. Knowing that the slightest shock could prove fatal upon his mother's awakening, Alex strives to keep the fall of the GDR a secret for as long as possible. Keeping their apartment firmly rooted in the past, Alex's scheme works for a while, but it's not long before his mother is feeling better and ready to get up and around again.

Good Film
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With the whole film in german it is always a bit of a pain to have to read your movie, but this one is well worth it. The story is exciting and pulls you in as you learn about the fall of the Berlin wall and the unification of the east and west. Great film thet explores the way capitalism rushes into east Germany and totally changes the landscape almost overnight. A must see
