In autumn 2009, the peaceful revolution and the fall of the Wall will celebrate their 20th anniversary. To mark the occasion, the German Federal Cultural Foundation and the Deutsche Kinemathek have initiated a special series entitled "After Winter Comes Spring - Films Presaging the Fall of the Wall". The project will be launched at the 59th Berlin International Film Festival.
In fifteen feature-length blocks, "After Winter Comes Spring" will present films made in both Germanys and Eastern Europe during the last decade of the Cold War - films that convey a sense of the radical changes to come.
