The closing installment of Roberto Rossellini's War Trilogy follows a twelve-year-old boy struggling to survive in the ruins of Berlin's streets. Young Edmund lives in a bombed-out apartment flat with his siblings and an ill father. While wandering aimlessly in the streets, Edmund gets entangled in black market schemes set up by a group of youths and falls under the influence of a Nazi-sympathizing former teacher and other malicious characters. Boasting a much bleaker atmosphere than its predecessors, Germany Year Zero reveals the devastating effects of fascism on individuals and societies with a sharp and jarring realism.
The New Year is more than just a date change on the calendar. It often marks a turning point where the weight of past experiences is felt or the uncertainty of the future is faced. This season, Pera Film highlights films that delve into themes of hope, regret, nostalgia, and new beginnings.
