Movie Haiku:Tense, fact-based drama about terrorists in late 1960s Germany, suggestive of contemporary concerns, but equally bleak about solutions. While students all around the world were protesting, German youth were also tormented about the Nazi complicity of elders upholding "the system," making a mockery of trials & other forms of "justice."
