Gundi Gundermann

Directed by Richard Engel

With Gerhard Gundermann and Alfons Förster

This historically relevant documentation about the Lusatian original Gerhard "Gundi" Gundermann, who was received ambivalently at his time, is a truthful, unfalsified contemporary document, both about the folk song singer and excavator driver himself, as well as about the realities of the time within still existing GDR. His actual quality and significance to this day is evident in the timelessness of his profound songs and lyrics, also written for other artists, in their universality and the poetic power of various interpretations.
