Yesterday Girl (1966)
(Abschied von Gestern)
Country: GER
Technical: bw 88m
Director: Alexander Kluge
Cast: Alexandra Kluge, Günther Mack, Hans Korte
Synopsis:
A refugee from East Germany arrives uncomprehending in the West and passes through various uses and abuses until, pregnant and living out of a suitcase, she gives herself up.
Review:
Literally 'Goodbye to Yesterday', the film takes stock of contemporary Germany through the eyes of this semi-stranger, haunted by memories of the war. A challenging film, and a slightly dated one, but nevertheless important for its time.
