D'Est can be summed up as two hours of silence that had no impression on my life what so ever. I don't mean to be harsh, but I guess I can back up my self by saying that this has nothing to do with my history of life. I know that can sound stubborn, but it really took time before my life started. It has more to do with the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the life that was exposed in East Germany that was hidden for awhile. I think they called it the iron curtain because we could never see over there and the U.S was afraid that they were making nuclear weapons over there. But it turns out nothing was really going on over there behind the wall. When watching the movie, besides being slow, it was very depressing to me. It showed the hardships in the grainy visions and also in the faces of people. It showed a struggle that they couldn't over come. It made me think of how much struggle there is in the world today. You think we would learn from an event like this in the past...

The Iron Curtain is a reference to how Soviet-controlled Eastern Europe and its people were not allowed their personal freedom to think for themselves or move freely around the world. People died, families suffered, individuals were destroyed, and worlds were crushed.
It has something to do with you
