quieter post-war film

The war was over, the economic miracle is not yet in sight, and this quiet, critical film considers the twelve years of Nazi dictatorship with the "callous" eyes of a - car! Seven owners had the small car to any it can tell a story, the whole show the various stages of the Nazi terror and the involvement of the car owner in it. You can tell the movie to the lack of funds, sees that with "nothing", a film had to be shot, but that leaves all of them outstanding performer only the more come to the fore. "In those days" shows how sophisticated, politically and poetically the German film after the war could be before the "home movies" could conquer the audience and the movie theaters. The topics of the individual episodes are classic, it's about love, loyalty, courage and death, as the "little" people have come to terms, or even sacrificed in the time of terror and war. There are small episodes, small moments, thoughtful dialogues and might end up scaring that the personal fates were always greater than the war, even if they were only triggered by this. The spectator takes - with the help of the car - the "people" who seem at first disappeared.
