    Cinema Toni, Berlin-Weißensee, November 2017. Rappel Full House. It runs keys, most amazing film of GDR history – staging, happening and documentation. An unequal couple travels to Poland, in spring 1972. Klaus studied, Ric is a worker. Klaus knows, Ric feels. Klaus Buffaloes Polish, Ric hashes language from air. Klaus rebukes Ric: You're lazy, you make nothin' out of you! The two are not married. Hotel problems threaten, but in Warsaw lovers meet a couple who entrusts ir Krakow apartment to m. Unrealistic? Servants happened to director Egon Günr and his Szenaristin Helga Schütz in Poland.

    The keys fit. Ric and Klaus refer to quarters. You will explore extraordinary city. You will experience Rock Titans Czesław Niemen, carving altar of Veit butt, Juvenalien, Kraków's student carnival. Klaus notes: The Poles are just looser. In evening before catastrophe, Ric (Jutta Hoffmann) sits in an off-road tram and remains inert in twilight: I will remain my life-long worker. I don't suffer, I make it best. But I don't want to be looked at Scheel by my sweeart and ors. We are born differently. It must be able to give me, as I am, little modifiable. And it will always give me...

    No, just hours.

    For time being an old Straßenbahner-genuine and unplanned. It was night, young woman had to get out, go to sleep. Ric asks: Why are you so good at German? – Thirty years before, in war, man says. Interface. In truth, old man furr said: in Deitsche captivity never starved, in Russian captivity horrible. This had to be repaid, like procession of anti-communist cardinal Wyszyński, like morgue in which Klaus Ric is to identify. With scarce hardship, keys passed censorship. Only two years after production film ran in a few cinemas of GDR. It was locked for export.

    In cinema Toni Hall is on. A Croud senior enters stage: Klaus aka Jaecki Schwarz, 45 years later. I was always an acting craftsman, says Black. In this film I felt myself as an artist. Egon Günr let me speak as I felt.

    A world film, says Jutta Hoffmann.

    The director Egon Günr, born 1927 proletarian in Schneeberg/Ore Mountains, was Defa-Avant. He despised linear conventional sense of "socialist realism" like UFA sentimentality. His first of 1965 was called lots of woman. The Naval officer Richard Lot (Günr Simon) cheats on his wife (Marita Böhme). She wants to get a divorce. Comrade Lot refuses. Katrin lot steals from self-defense in department store and can be caught. Now Richard agrees to divorce, because of Katrin's "moral instability". And who gets children?

    This article dates back to time No. 49/2017. Here you can read entire output.

    Already Günr's sophomore, fairy tale if you are great, dear Adam, counted among ten banned films that were exposed and bunkered in 1965 after "clearance plenary" of CC of SED. In 1972, Günr again addressed collective state and individual happiness with third. The Lost deaconesses pupil Margit (Jutta Hoffmann) finally wants to get right one after two men's bankruptcies. Jutta Hoffmann became Egon Günr's favourite instrument – curious, waggish, Sozialfühlig, aestic flight. She was fond of stepping aside her role, ironic her discreetly, slipped back. She was not – she told person.

    It is identical in a personal conversation. She talks spitz and warm, she laughs absolutely, she discusses. She reminds bolder projects and cultural-political sabotage: Official dogmatics, small-spirited, narrow, completely insane! She describes how Egon Günr – free-spirited, highly educated, sexy – already stabbed habitually from DEFA average. She's Calling to Heaven: Egon, did you hear us?
