The Divided Heaven tells the story of Rita Seidel. Prior to the construction of the Berlin Wall, she moves to Halle to study and ends up working in a car factory. There, she gets to know the 29 year-old chemist Manfred and falls in love with him. Shortly thereafter, she and her melancholy loner of a boyfriend move into a small, attic apartment. But, as it always happens in life, politics comes between the two, for the couple is a metaphor for the two, now split, German states. There are problems at the car factory which can't be overlooked. Management is corrupt; the workers unmotivated; and there's a shortage of materiel to do the job. Conditions change when the plant manager goes on a trip to "Berlin-W" and doesn't return. Only after his successor Wendland takes over and the idealistic brigade leader Meternagel manages to inspire the once rebellious plant workers, does Rita find new optimism.Der geteilte Himmel erzählt die Geschichte von Rita Seidel. Diese kommt noch vor dem Bau der Mauer zum Lehramt-Studium nach Halle an der Saale und arbeitet nebenbei im Waggonwerk. Sie lernt den 29 jährigen Chemiker Manfred kennen und lieben. Kurz darauf zieht sie mit dem melancholischen Einzelgänger in eine kleine Dachgeschosswohnung. Doch wie immer im Leben kommt die Politik dazwischen, denn das Liebespaar stellt auch eine Metapher für die beiden deutschen Staaten dar. Im Waggonwerk sind die Probleme nicht zu übersehen. Es gibt eine korrupte Leitung, unmotivierte Arbeiter und Material-Mangel. Die Zustände ändern sich erst, als der Werkleiter von einem Besuch in “Berlin-W” nicht zurückkehrt. Nachdem dessen Nachfolger Wendland seine Arbeit aufnimmt und es auch dem idealistischen Brigadeleiter Meternagel gelingt, die abtrünnigen Arbeiter neu zu begeistern, schöpft Rita neuen Optimismus. In German with switchable English, German, French and Spanish subtitles. Approx. 108 mins.
