5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating glimpse of early postwar East Germany
I found this film enormously engrossing but maybe that's just me. It offers a fascinating glimpse of Soviet/East German relations in the early postwar period.

1.0 out of 5 stars Only if you want to listen to some German
I didn't like to movie at all. The story is depressing but it shows some of the reality Germany faced right after the second war world. Good to train you ears when it comes to the German languish but that is all.

I found this film enormously engrossing but maybe that's just me. It offers a fascinating glimpse of Soviet/East German relations in the early postwar period. Uranium workers (many of whom are forced laborers in lieu of prison) are warned that the Soviets must build their nuclear arsenal to counter the American threat; that "American bombs would already have exploded over Germany if not for Soviet power." German/Russian cultural interaction is another central topic, as Russians and former SS officers mix (and mix it up). The film employs many eclectic camera angles, point-of-view shots etc. Although filmed in 1958, it was immediately banned by the Soviets, and released on a limited basis in 1972.
