Extreme Quarantine: “The Last Days” Shows Us How Much Worse It Could Be
Rather than focusing on the bleak, cynical aspects of life post-pandemic, the focus is optimistic and hopeful.
Träumerei
A musical film based on biographical facts about Clara Wieck's love for composer Robert Schumann (1810-1856), her marriage against her will, Schumann's triumph, and his tragic end due to mental illness. The film is beautiful and entertaining, full of noble spirit and beautiful words about art and love, which only conflict in a theoretical context; not least thanks to its solid cast, this film is quite serious and far from kitsch. Completed in 1944, during World War II, the film was rejected by the Nazi leadership, but was eventually released and enjoyed success with an audience already weary of war.
