The Lives of Others, 2007

I stupidly didn’t consider that this class falls on May Day, and that May Day is a public holiday in Turkey. Instead of trying to reschedule the class (which is difficult at IHU), I will give you a movie to watch in your own free time.
Yes, it’s on topic since it deals with the Cold War.
Yes, it is German. But yes, it is also very good. Received an Oscar in 2007. It’s one of my favorite movies actually.
