KINO’s German Film of the Year 2001: »Black Box BRD«

By general concensus, the editors of KINO German Film, together with colleagues at Oktoberdruck, voted Andres Veiel’s documentary Black Box BRD the German Film of the Year 2001.

       »Never before was the tragic side of German history in the 20th century made so sensitively plausible through the fatal paths of destiny taken by two contrasting personalities.« And, as was said during the roundtable discussion at the Leipzig DOKfilm festival, Veiel’s moral chronicle took the pulse of the times, socially and politically, for yesterday and today.
