Synopsis
The film was made on the basis of an interview with my neighbor Berta Zanker, former home economics teacher, born in Augsburg, Bavaria in 1923. As one of the last contemporary witnesses, she tells her very personal memories of her childhood in the country and her later life in Augsburg before and during the war between 1930 and 1945. With partly funny, partly sad episodes, she lets the viewer participate in that time from the point of view of a simple, young woman.
The documentary is provided with numerous personal photos and historical photo and film material and is accompanied by specially composed film music. A contemporary document well worth seeing.
