Year 0

I watched this really interesting film called Germany Year Zero recently

I thought it was a great film. It was actually filmed in 1948 in the ruined Berlin.

 So all the bombed and destroyed buildings are real.

I felt that was amazing.
They moved in quickly when the war was over to take advantage of  everything they could before restoration. 

So there is a very authentic feel to the film

While the story centers around the family of the little boy Edmund and their struggle to survive post war, it coulld also be a modern day story

Whenever there is struggle and hard times, people try to find a way to survive and of course there are predators

UGH. This guy
Other than that, I really enjoyed this film. 

It gave a lot of insight into what was going on with people in the war torn areas.

Although in your mind you keep thinking they were the more fortunate ones in the time of WWII
 Meanwhile it was also a very sad movie

 I won't give away too much, but I felt sorry for the boy Edmund. Very young with a lot of burden on him, emotionally and otherwise...
