In the aftermath of nuclear holocaust, a group of intellectuals crave to find hope in the pale and colorless new world. Among them, a history teacher tries to contact via letters his missing son.
“Moving indictment of mass destruction with the help of oppressive, symbolically charged images of immense power” Lexicon of International Film
“A haunting reminder of reason, both in protest against irrational nuclear war and in the resolute emphasis on human humanity, which last but not least represents a final anchor of hope.” Stefan Höltgen from F.LM – texts for the film.
