Champagner für die Augen - Gift für den Rest

2022 · 60 min · Documentary

The feeling of life in Munich in the 70s through the eyes of one of the most stylish filmmakers of that time.

A spirit of optimism, structural change, emancipation: by showing excerpts from his films such as LIEBE, SO SCHÖN WIEBE (1971), SYLVIE (1973), IDOLE (1976) and AMORE (1978), Klaus Lemke tells his story of the decade, now half a century ago, that was so formative for Munich, with sentences such as: "Back then, we all thought life was eating out of our hands, then in the '80s we became fodder ourselves."
