When Alex's mother fell into a coma, he knew he had to come back to Germany to get back to the battle. From 1948 to 1990 when the Soviet Union occupied the east, the East Germany pointed to East Germany. I do not think that the image of Alex is too different from the real image. All he did was to use the old news clip and re-record it as a news anchor with friends. Overall, I think he is doing a good job of hiding "new" Germany from his mother.
East Germany, the official German Democratic Republic (Germany: Democratic Republic of Germany; Germany: Democratic Republic of Germany: Germany) existed between 1949 and 1990, when the Eastern Germany during the Cold War was part of the eastern group. At the end of World War II, the Soviets managed and occupied the Soviet occupation territory of the Potsdam Agreement, and the East was the Oder-Neisse Line. The Soviet Union surrounded West Berlin, but because it did not contain it, West Berlin is still outside the jurisdiction of the democratic German.
After the Second World War, this change may be more difficult to achieve than East Germany, between the Soviet occupied land and the German Democratic Republic (the German Democratic Republic). After the war, the political, social and cultural history of East Germany was deeply disturbed by the development of the Soviet army, which required absorption of some form of refugee from the eastern part of the Oder River (about a quarter). Many possibilities to deal with the population of the German Democratic Republic in 1950, the German division, the political and economic system of Stalinism, the intention of the vast majority of the population, the suppression of freedom of speech, and personal trauma recently It stems from the events of. . Therefore, German Democratic political leaders often use hatred as grounds for loyalty, which seems to be more than a coincidence.
After the war, with the help of the Soviet occupation forces, the ruling Communist Party SED began establishing a dictatorship system in East Germany (GDR). However, the majority of the population of East Germany is not consistent with the new political and economic system. Because of the mixed political, economic, and personal reasons, large - scale immigration to the West began in the late 1940 's. By August 1961, East Germany has lost a quarter of the population. As early as 1952, SED began blocking the border between East Germany and West Germany. Therefore, it is increasingly dangerous to escape directly to the west. Many people utilize the final loophole and choose to reach the West Germany through the industry boundary across West Berlin.
