Amrum, 1945
April 1945. On the remote German Wadden Sea island of Amrum, in the final weeks of the war, there is a shortage of everything. As the ‘head of the household’, twelve-year-old Nanning must do everything in his power to provide food for his heavily pregnant mother, his little brother and sister, and his aunt. Despite all the hardships, life on the beautiful, windswept island feels almost like paradise. But when peace finally arrives, Nanning struggles with his parents’ Nazi beliefs and the opposition on the island. In Germany, Amrum, 1945 was a huge success and one of Fatih Akin’s most-watched films.
