ANIMATIONS BY G.SCOTT MACLEOD from his film After the war with Hannelore - A Berliner war child's testimony 1945 - 1989

This film is a portrait of Hannelore Scheiber during her years growing up in post-war Berlin. The story follows a linear chronology from her birth in a Berlin hospital in January 1945. It describes her family circumstances during the war and post-war era, contact with Russian soldiers, the Russian blockade, and the Berlin Airlift (LuftbrŸcke) from 1948 to 1949. The film documents her school years from 1951 to 1967, the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961, meeting her husband Jean Devigne, their courtship and marriage, and their crossing to the West at Checkpoint Charlie in 1982. My intention with this documentary was to film Hannelore at specific locations in Berlin and document her stories and memories. My goal was to catch her emotions around the most important experiences she remembers from growing up in post-war Berlin.
