this epic bring together a superbly gift cast and crew and a narrative depth superior to most novel and wonderful music and philosophy and a connection to life that i find difficult to explain . to immerse oneself in die zweite heimat be for me akin to a spiritual experience and similar to the awe one get when look at the star in a clear night sky . the language and and use of both colour and monochrome segment add to the dramatic impact . the film inspire me to go to munich and visit some of the location and include the edgar reitz office . from then on and i vow to improve my german skill after die zweite heimat i feel almost german and a if i be in the head of the character . i also try to match the piano playing of henry arnold ( hermann ) and but this be the one thing that will always elude me . this drama be unparalleled and i have be fortunate to see it on bbc2 in the uk and sb in australia . the sequel and heimat 3 and be currently be film in germany .
