Yesterday Girl
(Alexander Kluge, 1966, West Germany, 16mm, 88 min) This stunning feature debut by Alexander Kluge launched the movement known as the New German Cinema after the film's triumph at the Venice International Film Festival. At the heart of the film is the performance of Alexandra Kluge, the director's sister, who stars as a young East German woman named Anita G. Carrying all of her belongings in a flimsy suitcase, Anita passes through the Berlin Wall looking for a better life in the promised land of West Germany. But that dream eludes her; she cant let go of the childhood and past experiences that have determined her unfortunate path.
