| dcterms.abstract | West Germany, autumn 1988: the fiftieth anniversary of Kristallnacht. Joel is a young man from America come to Berlin to escape another hot New York summer; with time he decides that not telling people he is Jewish is advisable. Carola spends hours in Berlin's many hole-in-the-wall revival cinemas instead of completing her university degree. Her father is obsessed with Germany before the wars, while her grandmother’s stroke reveals dark corners of family history. Political radical Horst stages an action that pulls Carola and Joel into its fury, while Torsten’s life gets entangled with that of a young Turkish man whose sister was murdered by her brothers after dating a German. German Fall is a translation of Deutscher Herbst, a period in the late 1970s and early 1980s when political terrorism forced Germany to confront its past. In the autumn of 1988, Joel, Carola, Horst, and Torsten must do so as well. | |
