The end of the Berlin Wall marked an important moment in the process of the reunification of West and East Germany, which had been divided for more than 28 years. Two movies represented this topic at the German Cinema 2019, one at the opening and one at the closing ceremony of the festival. The first one, Gundermann, tells the biographic story of an East German musician who was pushed into working for the Stasi, the secret police of East Germany by that time. Ballon, follows the true story of a family that escaped to the West in a self-made air balloon. The highly interesting story managed to draw the attention of many visitors and filled up the cinema to the brink.
