The Rise And Fall of the Wall – The Cinema of East Germany

Barefoot and Without a Hat

Barfuß und ohne Hut

Jürgen Böttcher

Friendship, fun and contemplation characterize the lives of a group of twenty-year-olds who spend their summer vacation in Prerow on the Baltic Sea. In brief interviews, they discuss their past achievements, future plans, dreams and perspectives. The film underlines the conflict between the impending, serious future and their carefree, colourful lives, reflecting the attitude towards life in the 1960s.
