Description
[Machine Translation] Based on the novel by Remarque, the master director Douglas Sirk depicts the hatred of war and unlimited love for youth in this masterpiece. --In 1944, signs of the collapse of the Nazi regime began to emerge. On the Russian front, the Germans are retreating, and Ernst Graeber's (Jean Gavin) company is retreating across the snowy steppe, beset by constant artillery fire and guerrillas. Ernst is granted a leave of absence for the first time in two years, and he returns to his old hometown with the desire to fly away. However, the town was in ruins from the daily bombings, and he did not know if his parents were safe. He visits his family's doctor, but the anti-war doctor, Kruse, has been taken away by the Gestapo, and his only daughter, Elisabeth (Liselotte Pulfer), is being watched at home. Ernst and Elisabeth fall in love and get married. But their short-lived happiness is short-lived, as a relentless bombing ravages their home and their city. This masterpiece of war drama was made in his hometown Berlin by director Douglas Sirk, who fled to the U.S. out of hatred for Nazism, and depicts the defeated Germany from the perspective of the war. A young couple's search for happiness like a narrow light amidst desperate days and ruins is deeply moving with boundless purity.
