  Sonnenallee (1999)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
The characters were more nuanced and their treatment more sensitive than that seen in the more popular Goodbye Lenin which, while a good movie, is more about the character's relationship with his mother than it is an accurate portrayal of life in East Germany.
In interviews with the makers of Goodbye Lenin, they have mentioned that much of their inspiration for their treatment of East Germans came from TV shows on East Germans....
Sonnenallee presents the eastern life without the extra refraction of the television screen.

 Central Europe Review - Film: Leander Haussmann's Sonnenallee
Sonnenallee (literally Sun Alley) is the name of a Berlin street formerly divided by the Wall, with its tail end in East Germany, where Leander Haußmann's film of the same name is set.
Although it has now been playing for some months, controversy still surrounds it in the former East Germany, where the memory of people being shot at the border and the intimidation by the secret police is still raw and painful.
Sonnenallee may not have the most original story line but the standards of acting and production are high and if you want to feel good and have a little bit of insight into how it must have been to grow up in East Berlin the film is well worth seeing.

 Sonnenallee
The opening to Sonnenallee hints that this fine new German comedy is going to offer a twist on the usual teenage coming-of-age story.
With a screenplay by first-time director Leander Hausmann and author Thomas Brussig, the film depicts the life of a group of East German teenagers in the 1970´s on Sonnenallee, an actual street running through Berlin which was sliced through by the Wall at one end.
The East German residents of the street required special permits to live so close to the border crossing, which is always present as the simple story plays out.

 ostalgie
The indisputable granddaddy of the “GDR Retro-film” is Leander Hausmann’s debut Sonnenallee (1999).
Similar to later retro-films, Sonnenallee obsesses with dramaturgy and GDR iconography: one need only look to the prominent role of sets, costumes, uniforms, to determine the importance of mise-en-scène to the film.
Sonnenallee is Ostalgie in its purest form, its obsessive attitude towards the shapes and colors of GDR mass culture not at all unlike the various websites seen above or the British teenagers clad in FDJ shirts.

 Am kürzeren Ende der Sonnenallee - Thomas Brussig
Am kürzeren Ende der Sonnenallee is the book to the film, Brussig's novelization of the film Sonnenallee he wrote with Leander Haußmann.
The Sonnenallee of the title is the sunnily-named Berlin boulevard running through the divided city, of which only a tiny piece -- the short end of the title -- got stuck on the wrong side of the Berlin Wall when the city was partitioned.
Best laid plans -- regardless of whose they might be -- stand no chance for those living in Sonnenallee -- but failure is also not as terrible as it might be elsewhere, with a pervasive sense of family and camaraderie uniting almost all.

 German Cinema - SONNENALLEE   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
In addition, it was their first studio-based film with much of the action being played out in an open-air set on a backlot at the Babelsberg Studios where part of Berlin's Sonnenallee was reconstructed as it must have looked before 1989 with the border fortifications and Wall still intact.
For Haußmann, who was born in Quedlinburg in 1959 and studied at the Ernst Busch Actors School in East Berlin, Sonnenallee has a lot to do with his own youth and his generation's experiences in the former East Germany.
However, Sonnenallee isn't likely to be the only film about the ex-GDR in the cinemas this autumn.

A group of kids grow up on the short, wrong (east) side of the Sonnenallee in Berlin, right next to one of the few border crossings between East and West reserved for German citizens.
The antics of these kids, their families, of the "West German" friends and relatives who come to visit, and of the East German border guards, all serve to illustrate the absurdity of everyday life on the Sonnenallee, and therefore throughout the former East Germany.
