Deutschland (2015)

Set against the height of 1983 Euromissile tensions, Anna and Jörg Winger’s drama transforms NATO command bunkers and Stasi listening posts into arenas of pure existential dread. The narrative reaches its zenith when intelligence analysts in East Berlin dangerously misinterpret NATO's Able Archer exercise as preparation for a genuine nuclear first strike. It illustrates with chilling clarity how rigid military protocol and ideological paranoia can bring superpowers to the brink of accidental annihilation.
