Reunification in the Ice: The Story of the Last GDR Antarctic Explorers
Wende im Eis - Die Geschichte der letzten DDR-Antarktisforscher
Watch Reunification in the Ice: The Story of the Last GDR Antarctic Explorers Online Free on Watchseries. In 1989, thirteen GDR scientists and technicians set off from East Berlin to the Georg Forster research station in the Antarctic. During their expedition the Berlin Wall fell on November 9th. Cut off from the images that go around the world, the men can only experience the historical events passively. When they returned in the spring of 1991, their homeland was a foreign country. The documentary reconstructs the thoughts and feelings of the East German researchers on the basis of eyewitness accounts, diary excerpts, letters, film material, grandiose landscape shots from the location of the action and unique photos to make the consequences of the events tens of thousands of kilometers away on the small GDR expedition in the middle of the eternal ice tangible.
