Originally produced by DEFA Film Library in 1990.The city of Leipzig made headlines with its peaceful Monday Demonstrations before the collapse of the Berlin Wall in the fall of 1989. The uproar at that time was replaced by the hectic electoral campaign in the spring of 1990. Nightly conversations with three street sweepers, Gabi, Henry and Stefan, whose life took place between children’s homes and prison, are dominated by hopelessness and broken self-confidence, but one can also feel a keen sense for the changes in the social and political climates in East Germany. Part 1 of the long observation project known as the Sweep It Up trilogy.Mode of access: World Wide Web.- Subjects: Documentary films.; Social sciences.; History, Modern.; German language.; Foreign study.; Documentary films.; History.;
