Documentary exploring what life was like for classical musicians in
the German Democratic Republic (GDR) after the division of Germany
in 1945. Used to advertise the merits of the GDR, classical music
was portrayed by the authorities as representative of a
culture-loving working people, in direct contrast to the
'decadent', westernised pop music of the day. Those musicians who
were not only gifted but also displayed the correct ideological
values were able to enjoy privileges beyond the reach of the
masses. Through interviews with musicians active at the time, both
in the GDR and the Federal Republic of Germany (FDR), the film
compares and contrasts the lives of those involved, and provides an
insight into the way the political system influenced artistic life.
