Freedom is only separated by a wall

Inadvertently revisited "Balloon" again, and now I know that he has a prototype.

“In the East German balloon escape in 1979, two families, with eight members in total, escaped the Eastern bloc country of East Germany by crossing the border to West Germany in a homemade hot air balloon. The escape happened at approximately 2:00 am on 16 September 1979. The plot to accomplish this was carried out over a period of one and a half years, including an unsuccessful attempt, three different balloons, and various modifications until the successful escape occurred. One failed crossing alerted the government to the plot , but the police were not able to identify the suspects before their flight to the west." - Wikipedia

When balloons are no longer a happy toy for children, when balloons become a vehicle for people's pursuit of freedom.

I admire their courage, their yearning for freedom, their pursuit of freedom.

    1. Germany's attitude of reflecting on its own national history is worthy of praise and learning... 2. Compared with those horror films such as blood and ghosts, it is movies such as "Iron Rain" and "Balloon" that make reading films even more There are countless fears in my heart, especially after the experience of mental disorder and brain opening, I have a more personal experience of many incredible things. Since the first failure to escape, I have been worried and fearful for the protagonists, knowing that some plot settings, detail processing, line arrangement, parallel editing, etc. are deliberate means of the film, but they are not spoiled and do not know the ending. I am still afraid that something will happen to them, so that when I finally succeed the second time, my mood will follow them with cheers and excitement (unfortunately, I want to cry but my eyes are not filled with tears)... 3. The body may only move in a small area, but the mind is not. Traveling back and forth in different times and spaces in this world because of movies (and music)…

    The plot catches up with the plot, and at the end, only the rhythm and plot of the genre are left, and everything else is gone.
