Author Ulrich Plenzdorf and director Heiner Carow winningly portray everyday life in East Berlin in a story of undefeatable love between a passionate single mother and a married bureaucrat. Featuring the music of the East German cult rock band, The Pudhys, the film proved immensely popular despite official media blackouts.
