"STARRING" "I've always wanted to become a pop star in spite of the fact that Brian Jones died when he was just 27 years old," "Elvis was 42 when he passed away, not to mention John Lennon who was not that old either." "I live in a country that is still very young - in the GDR." "Other than that I have no other problems." "I'm listening to a forbidden song right now." "Well." "It's not officially forbidden, but everybody knows it is anyway." "There is a certain department in our neighborhood where they think all the time about what they can forbid next." "To tell the truth, they forbid lots of things and they do that pretty often." "My name's Michael Ehrenreich, and I'm 17." "There is another wall behind this one:" "A wall that divides Berlin into the East and the West." "The Golden West is in the grasp of a hand." "My street, the longer part of which lies in the West, and the shorter in the East is called" "SUN ALLEY" "People who live in the West built terraces so that they could humiliate us." "You see that Ossie standing over there?" "He's so sweet that you could fall in love with him." "Come here." "Want a chocolate?" "I'll drop you one." "Don't feed the animals!" " Where did you get those awesome clothes from?" " How's it going?" "I was feeling pretty good, but I didn't feel the need to brag about it..." "Besides, it was forbidden to talk to them," "There were no homeless or hungry people in our country, we've had enough food and the prices were stable." "That's Mario," " Get your hands off it." " Here's the money." "He's my friend, and he also lives in the Sun Alley." "We mostly spend our time having fun, but today we are talking about one thing only." "Have you already decided what you're going to tell them?" "Not yet." "I'm going to say "No" for sure." " Hey, red light." " So what?" "Hi, Misha," "Hi, Jutta." " Maybe one day we'll be standing up there too?" " If you say "Yes" tomorrow, then I'm sure you will." "Guys, The Stones are amazing." "I've just heard a track from their new album," " What are you going to tell us tomorrow?" " Talke a look." "Real Jeans from CA." "Showoff!" "Hi," "Let me tell you something about my new girlfriend," "Give yourself a break." "I asked you if we were going to accept a three-year assignment." "It's relatively simple for me." "I'm going to study, and I think you're going too." "Sure" " I want to go to college." "In case we agree we're going to get into trouble." "Oh, you're such a jerk." "Can't you just back off?" "Wasn't it yesterday that we planned to organize a protest and now you're going to serve in the Army for three years?" "Are you nuts?" "This is my father." "Careful, Sabine." "I can see everything." "My mom, "Careful" is her favorite word." "And that's my sister." "She gets a new boyfriend every week." "This one is a member of the party." "Who turned on the god damn TV?" "Setup the multifunctional table." " What?" " Please setup the multifunctional table." "But be careful," "Twist the crank," "Eastern shit," "Too high." "That's because it was produced in the East." " Don't say that." "Georg doesn't like it." " So let him go see his friends in the party." "Moscow, Moscow, That's forbidden, isn't it?" "Moscow, Moscow, That's forbidden for sure," "Push the "play" button, you punk," "That's what I did," "Why is it forbidden?" "Don't you get it?" "Because of the lyrics." " I knew that." " It's forbidden anyways." "What is forbidden?" "Put the player here, please." " You didn't understand us right, Mr. Sergeant." " Sergeant Major." "Being forbidden means something totally different to us kids." "That's one of our favorite ways to say..." " That something is cool..." " indeed." " What is this song about?" " We can't understand it." " The only language we learn at school is Russian." " Thank God." "I wish I could study in Moscow one day." " That's why we're listening to this song." " How do you turn this thing off?" "That's her, Miriam." "Coming right out from a fairy-tale, wonderful, adorable, unattainable Miriam." "And..." "I love her." "I'm confiscating this." "I'll listen to it later." "That's a great song." "I collect records myself." "I don't look like the type, huh?" "Sometimes I play such songs to my comrades, and it gets really "forbidden"." "You asshole." "You may go." "Are you afraid?" "No," "We're hungry." "Those boys, just like those boys in Africa." "It's so sad," "Herbert, look," "German Democratic Republic border, passport control." "I've lost my passport." "Our relatives from the West." "That's my uncle Heine, who passes the border a few times in a week." "He's a smuggler, continuously improving his methods." "Show me your suitcase, please." "Still, my uncle does not smuggle forbidden magazines, vinyls or pornography." "What he smuggles is actually absolutely legal." "What do we have here?" "I'm sorry, I forgot to take it out." "You must be really poor to eat such things." "Are you a member of a fascist party?" "Yes." "No," " Did that hurt?" " I'm going to throw you out, you..." "Dismatle the table because it takes up the whole room." "I'm coming." "Come in, Heine." "We've had a small accident." "Did you bring everything?" "Come in, you communists hunter." "That's our regional." "Meet my daughter and her friend." "He's a member of the party," "Is that your future son-in-law?" "You must be in a hurry..." "Please, sit down." "Multifunctional table?" "Has Misha got into a brawl again, Mr. Sergeant?" "What?" "Sergeant Major." "Next week I'm going to be promoted to an ensign - that's an officer military grade." "But today you're still a Sergeant Major, Mr. Sergeant Major?" "That's a subofficer grade, and an ensign is an officer grade." "Next there are general grades:" "General-ensign, general-major..." " It's different in the NAVY." "...general-colonel..." " Marine, lance-marine..." "...and the army general." "...boatswain, lance-boatswain, frigate captain, corvette captain, seafaring captain... then you have the rear-admiral, vice-admiral and admiral." " Stop babbling." "That's true," "I've got to go." "There's a lot to be done." "I'll see you out." "Has Misha really not been misbehaving?" "Yes, I mean:" "No." "But I came here officially." "One of the Western German citizens lost her passport." " I'd like to kindly ask anyone who finds it..." " Of course." "If I find it, I'll bring it right away, Mr..." " Sergeant Major." "...Horkefeld." "Good bye... and lock the door well, please." "A 68 years old, jeez." "I'm sorry, does Miriam Sommer live in this house?" "Do you live here?" "Sure I do." "Do you happen to know Miriam Sommers?" "That's my sister." "What do you want from her?" "Your sister." "I'll pay, you for a piece of information," " The "Schachtel Club" single." " Where am I supposed to get it from for you now?" "Then, you're out of luck, dude." " You must be Hein's uncle." " I know, the new Sabrina's boyfriend." "At last." "We were getting really impatient." "You old communist hunter." "You're doing a striptease?" "Only for the housewife." "Don't you think they're too big for me?" "Your size doesn't fit me." "Maybe they'll shrink after boiling." " Don't you have anything for me?" " Not this time." " Nothing for me too." " Damn table, I'll make a complaint." "This place is filled with asbestos - you're all going to get lung cancer." "Maybe at your place." "It's just a matter of time," "Just wait ten years and..." " Ten years?" " Yes." "We've lived here that long actually." "You have to make a complaint, then." "Misha, I've got something for you." "I smuggled it." "Underwear!" "Great!" "Sit down and be excited." "You probably had a lot problems with those." "No problems at all," "What are you doing?" "An application for party admittance?" "Which one do you want to join?" "You've got only one party here." "My daughter in the party?" "Never." "That's out of the question." " Is she supposed to fail her entire life?" " Georg is in the party, too." "Did I fail my entire life?" "You know, the Communist manifest is not a festival." "I know that." "What's he mean?" "Leave her alone." "You better think of what you're going to say tomorrow at school." " I'm not going to the Army for three years." "That's insane." " I assume you don't want to study in Moscow?" "A degree from Moscow is very prestigious here." "What did you just say?" "The boy should either study in Oxford or Sorbon." "Only mental cripples go to Russian schools." "Do you know who you are?" "You're nothing but a troublemaker and inciter." "What's going to happen to you if I go away?" "Where are you going?" "I don't know," "What is she trying to say?" "Nobody's ever getting out of here." "How come?" "We often go to Turinge." "Who was the first to be on the Moon?" " Leica." " Camera?" " Dog." " We're not talking about dogs here." " You came from the rotten West." " From Germany." "I've already explained that to you." " All of us live in Germany." " I disagree." "We're all German." "Do you want to serve our national army for three years?" "I guess that's clear, Misha?" "In such moments one feels so lonely." "Yes." "So now, tell me, in which countries do children feel very bad?" "In America, France, Scandinavia," "We've got to learn how to talk to the girls." "I can't see any problem with that." "Wuschel is going to teach us." "Give me a break." "I'm too young." "Excuse me, young lady..." "Can you tell us..." "Let me show you." "There's a disco in our school and with the help of my friends..." "Where's the Sun Alley one?" "Actually I don't really know my way around here but it's seventeen over there so..." "I won't let you have fun of me." "With the help of my friends we wanted..." "You dig her and you don't have the slightest idea what to say?" " What did you tell her?" " The usual." "She's not going to the disco?" "She doesn't have the time." "Here's the last chance," " Michael, your turn." " Why don't we do it later?" "Not those witches from school again..." "Let's get this party going!" " What horrible music." " Can't I bring my own records?" "Everything needs to clear out tonight." "Your glasses..." "Wanna dance?" "Excuse me?" "Do you want to dance?" "Can't you see I'm smoking?" "Well, at least he tried." "If that jerk played "The Stones", he would have closed the deal." "Whose red Ford Taurus has got plate number RES 538?" "Mine," "Follow me, please," "Are you coming or not?" "Who let the class enemy into the school?" "Leave this place, please!" "You can do everything in the West." "See you." " It was Miriam," " I can see that," " Please." " Ciao, Bella." "You'll be giving a speech about your behaviour at the next FDJ meeting." "Miriam and a guy from the West." "A kiss does not mean anything." "I've got to think of something." "My kids collected recyclable materials worth 130 DM." "Mine collected more than 200." "Together we exceeded the average." "I painted sunflowers for Angela Davis." "We're so proud of you." "Think of how many sunflowers were collected in the whole country." "We'll free our friend Angela for sure." "I used to have such a canvasser," "Watch out, she's coming." "Hello," "Why do you all look so confused," "We aren't in the parliament." "Sit down." "Today we're going to discuss..." "Thank you." "THE PARTY IS THE FORESKIN OF THE LABOR CLASS" "Who did that?" "Franziska?" " Mario." " Of course." "It's so sad to see you behave like a class enemy and to see that you have absolutely no respect fo our nation which - under the guidance of the labor class..." "Yes, Misha..." "What do you think about it?" "I did it," "You did?" "I'm so disappointed in you," "Misha should be punished as well, don't you think, friends?" "I'll deliver a lecture about my actions at the next FDJ meeting." "That sounds like a proper punishment although it's actually an honor for you." "Mario, you've been redeemed." "Where's my Kamil?" "I'm practicing my act, all for Miriam." "That's Sabina's new boyfriend." "He works in a theatre." "Be serious." "You're going to play Lucile in the school theatre."

"Your neighbor works for the undercover police and also has a phone." " How come you know where he works?" " Because he has a phone." " Then why doesn't he hang out the flag?" " Because he works for the undercover police." "But you do hang out the flag." "I'm trying to explain to you that he works for the undercover police." "What can we do about it?" " Do you have to hang out the flag?" " That's what I was talking about." "Party..." "labor class..." "Could you please stop for a while?" "You have to behave like Saint Juices at the moment of Danton's death and show to everyone how you're feeling deep inside." "Or like Brutus:" "Rome, citizens, friendship," "There's no proper acoustics but," "Dear friends..." " What's going on here?" " What are you asking?" " Why do you look like that?" " Yeah."

"Can't you smoke on the balcony?" "My father will be angry." " Hey, is that for your mom?" " What?" " Aren't your parents home?" " If they were, we would be having a party." " I need a room for my happening." " What?" " This one is ideal." " Are you Sabrina's friend too?" "Now for the drinking." "What's crucial is that you have to drink it all at once." "Cheers." "What's the problem?" "I don't know if I should..." "Miriam's coming soon." "You're going to feel relaxed." "It's really nice in here." " Did you like that blonde?" " I didn't say anything like that." "I saw a glare in your eyes." "Can you feel anything?" "No... you?" "Nothing." "I'll go to the balcony." "I was looking for you." "There's got to be a bathroom somewhere here." "Damn, I'm getting a pimple... and Miriam has not come yet." "Can you feel anything?" "No." "I'll check at the balcony whether Miriam's coming." "Do you think she's going to come?" "It's time for a protest," "Urine knows no limits." "That's Miriam," "She's coming." "What am I going to do about that damn pimple?"

"I can feel exactly what you feel." "As the years passed, I used to write all my reflections into countless diaries." "And suddenly you emerge, out of nowhere, thinking exactly the same way I do." " I'd love to read them." " What?" "Those countless diaries," "There are times everything is against you." "I'll talk to the head-master myself." "Sure." "She really likes me." " I wouldn't utter a word anyway." " Let me speak." "I don't feel well," "A visit from the Safety Department." "My duties include reading enemy newspapers on a daily basis." "There are worse things." "You will never be free unless you free the others." "That's what Sartre used to say." "Now he's an existentialist, is he?" "The toilet clogged." "We had to pee somewhere, didn't we?" "Besides, hostile newspapers lie, you read it every day." "That must be some sort of a trap," "We've made a mistake and we're asking for your forgiveness." "Right?" "Can't you see?" "We did apologize." "You peed on our antifascist wall, you peed on our country where Ernest Halmann comes from, not to mention thousands of his comrades." "You have not shown respect to graves of those thanks to whom you can live and learn in a free country." "Mario Naujoks is no longer a student of our school." "Get out of my sight." "And you, Ehrenreich..." "are getting a reprimand." "Leave!" "Back then Mario was experiencing the best moments of his life." "He was getting the taste of freedom with Sabrina." "They were always on the road and it actually didn't matter to them that their motorcycle was so slow." "Hi, Misha," "Remember I asked you to lend me your diaries?" "Well, first I have to find them all, especially those from the childhood." "I'm waiting." " Are you sick?" " Give me a break, I've got lots to do." "Need a hand?" "I don't want anyone to disturb me." " Good day, I'm Olaf from Drezno." " I'm Udo." "Our guests are here." "I'm Olaf from Drezno, I came to the youth congress." " That's our new tenant."

"We don't want to spend the night on the border." "I'm going to sleep." "Now I'm going to write about the country I live in." " I haven't done anything." " Let's go." "Follow me, please," "Of course." "I suspect you of something," "Do you know what one can be suspected of when he or she visits us so often?" "Of course, that you are a friend of our system." "Here, hi-fi, Japan." "Someone tried to smuggle it but you can't play tricks on us." "What do you think?" "Have a closer look, it's very complex." "Here's our good ol' radio:" "It's got a switch, a speaker, plastic casing, tones controller." "It takes too much space," "Absolutely unnecessary." "I'm sorry but you can get cancer, using it - you've got asbestos everywhere in here." "In the West they say that you can get cancer from those fillings as well." "And, actually, I've never had one." "While we're building socialism, they're afraid of cancer and build radios that they even don't know how to use." "They're bound to lose." "Everything is so gray." "Like ashes," "This country hurts you like a shoe that's too small." "You can't move in it, it's only dreams that you're left with." "Maybe I should try to escape?" "At last." "Nobody's going to take it away from me." "No wonder everybody ran away from here, and everybody that stayed dreams of escaping, and if somebody does not then he's going to do so soon." "Two systems." "I decided to flee to the West," "Darkness," "Increased risk of decampment." "Alert." "I saw a light at the end of the tunnel." "Shoot the flares."

"I decided to find a resistance group which would consist of my friends who knew what life was all about and who take it seriously." "Disobeying orders!" "Do you know what it means?" "Yes." "We'll show you the dictatorship of the proletariat." " I already know it." " That's what you think." "I'm happy to see you, comrade Gumprecht." "Mario?" "What are you doing here?" "Here you are." "We've been waiting for you." "I was put through too much," "I had a muck past." "I had no work," "and I'm going to be a father soon." "It was you who said you needed to mix everything from the inside." "Who's that Suzi?" "Suddenly you become an adult, partings and misfortunes multiply." "I yearn whole-heartedly." "Just imagine, Mr. Fromm works for a funeral company." " Uncle Heine's dead." " He died of cancer." "Poor dear," "Can I?" "He's going to be so alone in that wooden box." "You're going to be let go."
