Drama

Banned in its homeland for over two decades, this once controversial East German film follows the story of a young woman who begins an affair with an older man, only to discover he has a deeply personal (and political) tie to her family's past.

A young woman's (Angelika Waller) idyllic world collapses with a bang when her brother is arrested for propagandizing against the Party. She unexpectedly falls in love with a man (Alfred Müller) who turns out to be the judge responsible for her brother's troubles. Faced with an impossible dilemma the woman begins to see the world around her differently.

Loaded with political innuendo and at times impressively bold jabs at GDR's political elite The Rabbit Is Me is very much a film whose destiny appears to have been predetermined. In it humor, satire, and romance are nothing more than a pretext for a bold statement of discontent. Mixing elements that would become trademarks for the Czech, Polish, and Hungarian "New Wave" movements - stripped of glamour storytelling with distinctive political overtones, critical analysis, and complex characters often conveniently placed in absurd situations - pic plays back and forth between a romantic drama and a hilarious tale with a suspiciously linear progression. - dvdtalk.com
