SUMMARY:NOVEMBER 12
DESCRIPTION:The future of remembrance in united Germany: Illustrated Talk with refreshments. Speaker – Dr Debbie Pinfold; University of Bristol. When Germany reunited in 1990  East and West Germany had very distinct memory cultures of the National Socialism and World War II. The years following unification were  marked by efforts to create a unified culture of remembrance which would also support a sense of cohesive national identity. Yet as these events pass from lived memory and the past becomes contested again\, Germany’s culture of remembrance is at a transitional moment. Venue: St Peter’s Church Henleaze\, Meeting Room. 7.45pm \n##

SUMMARY:Film Night at Stoke Lodge. 7.00pm: Gundermann
DESCRIPTION:** Our season of German films comes to an end with Gundermann (2018) This film\, directed by Andreas Dresen\, is a German biopic about singer-songwriter Gerhard Gundermann\, who worked as an excavator operator in an East German lignite mine while also being a popular musician. The film moves between two timelines — his life before and after German reunification — and gradually reveals that his involvement with the Stasi\, a fact he struggled to reconcile with his own idealism. Its central themes are the tension between personal conviction and complicity under an authoritarian system\, the search for identity and forgiveness after the fall of the GDR\, and the pull between ordinary working life and artistic expression. German with English subtitles.\n#######

SUMMARY:BMMHS Zoom Talk ‘Berlin Divided City’
DESCRIPTION:** Join us for a Zoom talk tracing Berlin’s extraordinary Cold War story — from the four-power occupation and the 1948–49 Berlin Airlift\, through the building of the Wall in 1961\, to the tense stand-offs and superpower summits that made the city the front line of East-West confrontation. The talk explores daily life in a city split between two worlds\, and how Berlin came to symbolise both the depths of Cold War division and its eventual\, dramatic end in 1989.\n#######
