1. My personal response to this movie
Truly, I didn’t know this part of Germany history at all without getting access to this movie. Before watching this, I did a research online to know what basically the movie was about and downloaded on my own laptop so that I was able to have a Chinese subtitle for better understanding. This movie is telling us the early years of RAF. I can see how much effort the filmaker put on the representation of what really happened.
The beginning scene really confused me a little. It opens with a relaxing image of a happy family playing on a beach. Then, everything starts to become serious and bloody. I was angry about the scene that the police beat unarmed demonstrators who were protesting. The filmmaker has an obvious and clear mind in layout the whole story line. Later, it shocked me while the RAF members started to take actions on those innocent people. They strongly consider that they can change everything by doing their attacks. Then, horrible attacks start to display. They robbed bank, made bomb attacks, damage department stores and so on. It shows fully how brutal and bloodthirsty the RAF’s actions were during that time.
When they were arrested, their next generation members appear and make the whole situation worse. The attacks and kidnaps make more people injured and death. In my own opinion, they have no sense of responsibility to the society and those victims.
The movie ends with the leaders’ suicides in jail. They finally received the punishment they deserved –death. On the other hand, I found out that the German state also ran on the wrong track sometimes. Both sides of RAF and government need go back to find out where they need revise and improvement. Anyway, this movie is super impressive and strong to tell us what was happening on the later 20 century in Germany.
