Sonst ist auch das Ende verdorben is a stark documentary that delves into the aftermath of WWII in Hamburg, focusing on the English occupation in May 1945. The film captures a raw atmosphere, presenting a city grappling with its recent horrors while some Germans carry on with mundane life. There’s this palpable tension—liberation feels distant to many. The pacing is reflective, allowing you to sit with the somber realities rather than rushing through them. The standout element is the haunting poem by Ingeborg Bachmann that punctuates the film, leaving you with a sense of unresolved conflict. It's not just a historical document but a meditation on loss and resilience, making it quite distinctive in its approach.
