WESTWIND

This story of life behind the Iron Curtain focuses on an East/West romance between East German oarswoman Doreen and Arne from Hamburg. Doreen and her twin sister Isa go to a summer camp together, but when she and Arne meet, their budding friendship threatens the sisters’ close relationship. Will their love withstand this tension and the East/West divide too? With a 1980’s soundtrack to set the scene, featuring The Cure and
Depeche Mode, this enjoyable personal story set against Germany’s recent past contrasts with more politically conscious films such as Das Versprechen or Sonnenallee.
