Fur Konig Und Vaterland

Herzog's film is based upon the true and mysterious story of Kaspar Hauser, a young man who suddenly appeared in Nuremberg in 1828, barely able to speak or walk, and bearing a strange note; he later explained that he had been held captive in a dungeon of some sort for his entire life that he could remember, and only recently was he released, for reasons unknown. His benefactor attempts to integrate him into society, with intriguing results.

Paul and Paula have had bad experiences with love: Paul is financially well off but has lost all affection for his wife, and Paula leads a troublesome life raising two children on her own. They meet and discover a strong passion for each other. Life seems like a dream when they're together - but their short flights from the burdens of reality are once and again interrupted by Paul's ties to family and career. The film was banned on GDR TV after the emigration of both stars to FRG. It's still considered one of the most successful movies ever made in East Germany.
Ein erfrischend unterhaltsamer und offener Film, der Traum und Wirklichkeit, Poesie und banale Alltagsrealität mischt und mit Spaß, Ironie und Ernst künstlerisch entfaltet. Der schauspielerisch beachtliche Film macht durch seine grotesken Übersteigerungen deutlich, dass den Menschen auch in der realsozialistischen Gesellschaft das Glück nicht von vornherein in die Wiege gelegt wird. Sowohl das emotionale als auch das kritische Potential des Films, nicht zuletzt sein Plädoyer für Individualität und die Kraft der Träume, sorgten in der DDR für einen anhaltenden Publikumserfolg.
