Good Bye, Lenin! is a 2003 German movie directed by Wolfgang Becker. East Berlin, summer 1990: Shortly before the end of the GDR committed Christianist Kerner falls into a coma because she watches as her son Alexander is arrested during an anti-GDR demonstration. When she wakes up after the fall of the wall, she must be spared. In order not to upset her, the family tries to simulate the no longer existing state in the flat. The task, however, proves to be a difficult mission.
