a5c7b9f00b Berlin, 1941. Five friends eager to become heroes in an adventure that will change the face of Europe - and that will forever change themwell. Level-headed, highly decorated officer Wilhelm is off to the eastern front with his younger brother Friedhelm, a sensitive dreamer more interested in literature than warfare. Deeply in love with Wilhelm is Charlotte, a young nurse who looks forward to serving in the Wehrmacht, also on the eastern front. While Greta is a talented singer who longs to become another Marlene Dietrich, her Jewish boyfriend Viktor still cannot convince his parents to leave Germany… Valor and courage come to the fore, but also betrayal - of values, beliefs, humanity. Friedhelm turns into a soulless killing machine… Wilhelm deserts his troops and is court-martialed… Charlotte's Nazi ideology crumbles when she betrays a Jewish nurse helping the German army… Greta obtains papers for Viktor's escape by selling herself to an SS colonel. They and millions of others wanted to be heroes; but none of them could imagine what the war would ultimately do to them and to the rest of the world.
Five friends go out to war and promise each other to be back for Christmas.
Apart from the excellent acting & shooting, 'Unsere Mutter, unsere Vater' (= German for 'our mothers, our fathers') stand out for its honest & realistic scenery about ordinary young Germans in Hitler's days.<br/><br/>Its plot is centered around five youngsters, three of them joining Hitler's army because they had to do so: conscription. Which is precisely the reason why most of the world's youngsters join any army. Number 4 opted for a modest artistic career, and number 5 was a Jew.<br/><br/>Honest & realistic, I said. That also goes for the battle-scenes, which may be too much for some viewers. At the other hand, these scenes are very recognizable for those with military experience.<br/><br/>Further 'Unsere Mutter, unsere Vater' exclusively deals with Hitler's war in Eastern Europe. From 1941 up to 1945. Which is only too right, for Hitler was beaten + broken by that other fierce dictator, Communist Joseph Stalin. Although we like to believe otherwise, it essentially were Stalin's Herculanean efforts in Eastern Europe that allowed the Americans, English and Canadians to invade Western Europe in 1944.
First of all, I am no casual viewer. I am a casual viewer of television but I am really interested in the third Reich from a historical perspectivewellon a personal level. I watched all the three parts and my rating for this mini series degraded every single episode. Now first of all: For some viewers outside of Germany this might be a refreshing view. Oh the Germans were also humans… Not at all like james ryan where they are only puppets to get shot by tom hanks and his buddies. For me however its nothing more than a mix of all the German ww2 clichés in every movie I saw in the past 20 years. Everything is here: A cheerful start with young people living their live while the 3rd Reich only is shadowing in the background-then suddenly the war starts and people start to realize what is going on. CHEAP. SS Oficerthe main evil dude- Really CHEAP. STOP PLEASE. German army has some A holes but the maincharacters are just tormented nice guys… OMG. Russian human waves… Cliché. Unbelievable coincidences and deus ex machina moments to somehow create a story arch… bad movie making. Well anyway, the first part is tolerable and actually interesting because it tries to show life in the third Reich. Not accurate but also not bad. 2nd part shows more of the war but in a very clichéd bad way. I don't buy it. 3rd part is seriously the worst 2nd world war movie since Enemy at the gates. Everything is wrapping up so laughable. I wont spoiler anything but the storyline of the singer, the jew and the nurse are unbelievable. How does someone get founded for that in my country. I was stunned. Watch it for entertainment but always be aware you are watching expensive looking trash. Its like Tarantino without the intended humor and trying to be taken serious.
It plays like a conventional melodrama with better-than-average production values.
Does anyone know when this incredible mini series will be released on dvd in Ireland?
