Gundermann tells the story of a digger driver who writes songs.
He dreams and hopes, loves and struggles. He’s a spy who gets spied on, a do-gooder who doesn’t know better. He is torn. Gundermann is both a music film and a love story; a drama about guilt and entanglement, about suppression and confrontation. Gundermann is a film about the homeland. It takes anew look back at the GDR, a country that has disappeared. It’s not too late – in fact, it’s about time.
