action
Kinderland is burned down is a documentary film made in 1998 in which twelve women - some of them now living in the USA and Israel - remember their school days together in Ulm in the 1930s . The partly Jewish, partly Christian girls describe on the one hand the fascination that the Hitler Youth exercised on them; on the other hand, the division in the class community between Christian and middle-class schoolgirls in contrast to Jewish and social-democratic girls.
Reviews
The German Film and Media Assessment (FBW) justifies its predicate "Particularly valuable" as follows: "A large and important topic overused by well-intentioned but badly made films is given faces, stories, fates, place and time - in short, credibility."
The Lexicon of International Films writes: “The compilation of interviews, archive recordings and private documents, arranged chronologically from the seizure of power to the surrender, abstains from any comment, but opens up a wealth of references and interpretations. The banal everydayness of the ideological patterns becomes just as visible as the reference back to abstract historical facts on the actions and failures of concrete people. "
In the television magazine Prisma you can read that it is a “film that makes everyday life under fascism - small, shabby, often banal - tangible. The diversity of experiences and how they are reported speaks for itself, they say. "
Cristina Nord wrote in the taz : “About half share the experience of persecution, emigration and a new beginning; the others lived through what was normal youth under National Socialism: membership in the BDM, shore excursions, holiday camps, later work assignments and blind enthusiasm for the victories of the Germans. Even today, there is little sense of the distance to one's own little entanglement. (...) This is how a calm film is made, with a close look at everyday life under National Socialism and how this everyday life is remembered today. "
