Meeting in the Twilight

A psychological drama follows the Polish pianist Magdalena to a concert in West Germany and on a ride back into her memories. Eighteen years old she had been deported to a forced labour camp in Germany, where she fell in love with Steinlieb, the young owner of a shoe factory in a small town named Eltheim, where she had to work. Now she meets him again in a divided Germany, where he still is a decent man but committed to the wrong goals, loyal to the wrong people. And he is instrumental in the persecution of Wenk, a Communist who already helped Magdalena to escape from the Nazis and now fights against the preparation to war in the west, by the old elites and the US. Disillusioned in the end, Magdalena returns to Poland..
