- Comedy
- TV Movie
Frank Lehmann, 20, still lives with his parents in the dreary high-rise housing project "Neue Vahr" in Bremen. It's the year 1980 and Frank gets drafted to the army even though his friends assure him that "he's not really the guy for it". When he gets back home, after his first week at the army, his Dad has turned his room into a TV repair shop, so Frank has to move out. Luckily his old friend Martin is starting a commune with two other Punks in Bremens leftist borough "Viertel". Frank, without further ado rents the unlivable walk-through room. From now on Frank is a traveler between the Worlds. Each week he goes from the Army, with all the unconditional rules and regulations to the commune where his friends are preaching the world revolution. Frank is trying to avoid to stick out, but fails miserably, in both worlds.
Neue Vahr Süd is a 2010 German comedy TV movie set in 1980 Bremen, following 20-year-old Frank Lehmann as he navigates life between the rigid world of military service and the anarchic punk commune where his friends live. The film captures Frank's struggle to fit into two radically different worlds as he shuttles weekly between army barracks and a leftist squat in the city's bohemian quarter.
