I have already written to you about some of the premieres this Friday but I needed to inform you about the German and French co-production RAF: Red Army Faction which was one of the five nominated films to win the Oscar for Best Foreign Film that Japan took with the film "Departures."
RAF: Red Army Faction takes us to the 1977s, where the bourgeois and progressive journalist Ulrike Meinhof joins the armed group led by Andreas Baader, thus going underground. The film traces the dramatic and bloodthirsty trajectory of the RAF (Red Army Fraction), from the first attacks to the imprisonment of Stammheim, ending with the dramatic epilogue of the collective suicide in XNUMX. The film is inspired by a book Written by Stefan Aust, former editor-in-chief of Der Spiegel.
