Die Manns - Ein Jahrhundertroman

Overview

Much has been said and written about the Mann family. However, there has never been a film that brings this remarkable family to life in such a playful way. Through the docudrama format developed by Heinrich Breloer, we become direct witnesses to moving stories that no one has heard before. Stories of passion, love, and hate, of war and emigration, of tragic intertwining of personal and world historical events. The Mann family shows itself as it has never been seen before. They all appear: the brothers Thomas and Heinrich with their lifelong sibling rivalry, the extroverted siblings Erika and Klaus, the quiet Golo, and also the only child of Thomas Mann still alive today: Elisabeth.
