Renowned German director Helma Sanders-Brahms made her feature-film debut with this potent drama about a politically motivated couple who struggle in the calm that followed the student rebellions and demonstrations of the late 1960s. The heady days of 1968 brought sweeping socio-political changes in Germany, but the subsequent years have been a letdown for Grischa and Heinrich, who are starring in a successful play on the Berlin stage. Grischa, Heinrich, and their friends spend the night talking about their lives and their futures, as the rift between their revolutionary zeal and the pressures of their adult lives increase.
