HEIMATKUNDE // THE LASTING FORMATION
dir. Christian Bäucker
feature documentary, 88 min.
Germany
2021
After nearly 25 years, the filmmaker Christian Bäucker returns to his old school and invites teachers, pupils and the headteacher to appear in front of the camera. By gently picking through their memories, the question arises of the systematic manipulation of children in the DDR’s school system.*
