Abstract:

A seven part documentary of the history of Communist East Germany told from the people's own point of view. Part 6: The Ministry for State Security (MfS) was from its founding in 1950 the central instrument of domination, the "shield and sword of the Party" for defense against external and internal enemies. The Stasi, the political secret police, conducted surveillance and investigated punishable activity. A gigantic European surveillance apparatus ultimately appears - spies and informants with German thoroughness, millions of victims and mountains of files in the "Gauck Archives".

Part 7: A film about the end of the GDR. It begins as the GDR enjoys its greatest success, recognition by the Federal Republic of Germany - the hope for two German States and peaceful coexistence. From this point on the GDR walked a tightrope between détent and diverging from the West.
