Une jeunesse allemande

Synopsis

The history of the Red Army Faction (RAF) and the images created by this story. Made entirely out of archive film and audio material, with no commentary, this film tracks the RAF's gradual transformation and increasing politicisation along the road to armed resistance. An outsider’s view of West Germany in the RAF era, a time and a movement that still resonates in today’s society. Une jeunesse allemande was Jean-Gabriel Périot's debut feature film.
