The Discovery of Currywurst - En geheme Leev - with Platt-Pre-show at 6:45 PM

Description

Life hasn't always been gentle with Lena Brücker, truly not. But there were moments of happiness she will never forget. When she is visited in old age by a writer in a nursing home who tells her he has always enjoyed the supposedly invented by her Currywurst at her snack stand on Großneumarkt, she doesn't realize that his questions will lead her on a journey of memories to the key moment of her life. Several decades earlier, in the last days of World War II, she encounters the young boatswain Hermann Bremer in a Hamburg cinema. A sudden air raid forces both into an air raid shelter. Later, Lena invites him to her home, and Hermann decides to stay, which makes him a deserter. To avoid losing him again, Lena withholds the end of the war from Hermann. But how long can such a lie be maintained?
Uwe Timm describes in his famous novella the unlikely story of an unusual love in difficult times.
