I purchased this film having never seen it because I remembered it winning an Academy Award for Best Foreign Film 2006. It put me in touch with Germany's history and culture nearing the Fall of the Berlin Wall when tensions and paranoia were high. I loved this movie, especially the way it ended. Aside from "Run Lola Run" this is the best German film I have ever seen. Buy it. You won't be sorry.
