Germany in Autumn
DocumentaryDrama
Nine fictitious documentaries and films reflect the mood of late 1970s Germany, particularly the two-month period in 1977 when a businessman was kidnapped by the RAF (Red Army Faction). The kidnap had been made to orchestrate the release of the original leaders of the RAF, aka the Baader-Meinhof.
VIBE
A fragmented, urgent mosaic of a nation grappling with political violence and existential dread. It feels like a raw, unfiltered scream from a society on the brink, capturing the palpable tension and deep-seated anxieties of a turbulent era.
