Unversöhnliche Erinnerungen
In the organizer's words:
Irreconcilable Memories
Klaus Volkenborn, Johann Feindt, Karl Siebig, FRG 1979, 92 min, German OF
Two West German biographies that could not be more different: Henning Strümpell, a retired German army general, was a fighter pilot in the Condor Legion and part of the fascist support for General Franco in the Spanish Civil War. Ludwig Stillger, on the other hand, a trained bricklayer and a communist and unionized worker in the 1920s, fought on the side of the International Brigades. From a critical point of view, the open-hearted depictions of the Prussian nationalist Strümpell are a highly revealing panopticon of reactionary ideology and historical distortion, brilliantly exposed on film by the constant juxtaposition with the unpretentious and thoroughly sympathetic portrayal of Stillger's eventful life and his constant commitment to a world of solidarity and peace.
