Storyline
| Plot Summary |
The Year 1939 is an exemplary reconstruction of an historical turning point. Time and again, the images and the remembered stories, the songs and the faces of actors, politicians and millions like us, just refuse to add up to a vision that is whole and clear - here, something is always askew. History is the abyss staring back, and looking none too happy. A profound meditation on doubt and sorrow. Written by Maniac_In_Black |
