Berlin & Beyond - The Invention of Curried Sausage

Castro Theatre
San Francisco, CA

Spring 1945, the Allies are approaching Hamburg.
Lena Bruecker, in her mid-40s, finds herself
alone. Her children have left the roost and
her husband has been stationed on the eastern
front. Just when life appears to be almost over
for her as far as love and passion are concerned
it takes an unexpected turn. After an evening
at the cinema, which, as usual, ends up in an
air-raid shelter, she takes Petty Officer Bremer
home with her. Just like that. She cooks for the
young man, who reminds her of her son, and
offers him a place to stay, at first only for the
night, but then until the war is over. A passionate
and dramatic love affair unfolds, with
the war and nosy neighbors just outside the
door who cant wait to discover a deserter. But
the greater threat to Lenas new life is the impending
peace.
