Class of 1925 (Gregory House) MLP Film Lounge
Deutsches Haus presents Der Baader Meinhof Complex (2008). Germany in the 1970s: Murderous bomb attacks, the threat of terrorism and the fear of the enemy inside are rocking the very foundations of the yet fragile German democracy. The radicalised children of the Nazi generation are fighting a violent war against what they perceive as the new face of fascism: American imperialism supported by the German establishment, many of whom have a Nazi past. Their aim is to create a more human society but by employing inhuman means they not only spread terror and bloodshed, they also lose their own humanity.
Showtime is 8.00 PM. German with English subtitles.
Part of the 2010 Deutsches Haus Film Series. All films to be shown in the Class of 1925 (Gregory House) MLP Film Lounge. Snacks provided!
