HISTORY
Europe's Forgotten Border
52' (ENG, GER, FRE)
It is the story of a murderous border crossing that claims its victims far away from the Berlin Wall.
During the Cold War, the border between Czechoslovakia and the West became a dramatic scene. Between 1945 and 1989 several hundred people lost their lives. 30 years after the fall of the Iron Curtain, justice is now to be served: German and Czech public prosecutors are trying to bring the truth to light. We reconstruct the events through the eyes of perpetrators, victims, bereaved families and those responsible.
