Na und...?

So what ...?

Hamburg 1966. Adapting to conditions is the name of the game in the post-war reality of West Germany. There's trouble in the air, has been for some time. Marquard Bohm is troubled too – by the coercion in question. He doesn't want to go to work. He can't go to work. Nothing works anymore. At Dammtor a man runs into him: "Can I get by?" he asks. "There's plenty of space," Bohn answers casually. "But not for me," the older man replies, expecting deference, obedience. Bohm punches him in the face and then asks for a roll of fruit drops at the station kiosk.

"Na und...?" captures the feeling of its time, directly and in black and white. Without any smoke and mirrors. The generation gap cannot be bridged. The harbingers of the revolution are coming around the bend. Marquard Bohm is a representative of this generation that craves the new, the real, not the covered up, the dead, not the stale air. The film was shot on original sites in the house of the Bohm family in Hamburg Groß Flottbeck and other places in Hamburg. Marquard Bohm plays the young man, while Petra Krüger, his wife in real life, plays his wife. The still photography on set was done by Angela Luther, at that time married to Hark Bohm. She would later go on to join the RAF.
