Der Tunnel (2001) German
Yet another movie based on true events. This flick captures one successful escape attempt from East to west Berlin when they were split and a wall was raised between them. Having lost their families at each sides while East taking a stringent action against anyone trying to migrate to the other side , the families had to take a hard step to get their beloved to the other side. We might have seen so many movies based on tunnels and escape but to be sure this is one such exceptional movie that covers even the finest details making us live through the entire moments of it. The love of families , the loss and life, fear and death, Freedom and fight, this all blends together to produce one such jaw dropping film as this. a seamless story that captures one of riveting history in a splendid way. Movie is so long about 160 minutes but makes it feel worth every minute of it. A must watch foreign language film and definitely not to be missed. My strong recommendation goes with it. Happy watching
