#20 Die Flucht der Familie Schönfeld (Auszug der Doku Die DDDR) von Marco Lipski für Deafmedia.de
Heute präsentieren wir Euch einen LAAANGEN Ausschnitt unserer DVD Schmiede und zwar von der historischen DDR Doku Die Flucht der Familie Schönfeld. Wir meinten: Das Thema Flüchtlinge passt sehr gut zu der aktuellen Situation in Deutschland. Denn: Es ist noch gar nicht so lange her, da waren viele Ostdeutsche selbst Flüchtlinge und Länder wie Ungarn haben uns damals geholfen. Alles eine Frage der Perspektive! Diesen Film hatten wir ursprünglich NUR (und wir wiederholen:) AUSSCHLIEßLICH NUR für den DDR Abend der Gehörlosen Kulturtage in Erfurt 2012 produziert. Verkauft hatten wir nur die 120 min DVD Die DDDR (Deutsche Deaf Demokratische Republik, inkl. ca. 25 Zeutzeugen). Doch das intime Fluchtportrait der Familie schlug in Erfurt ein wie eine Bombe und man bat uns auch diese als DVD zu produzieren. Seit dem gibt es bei uns den DVD-Set Die DDDR und Die Flucht der Familie Schönfeld für 18 € inkl. Versandkosten zu bestellen: redaktion[affenklammer]deafmedia[dot]de

SUMMARY
=======
The Lübeck Martyrs were three Roman Catholic priests – Johannes Prassek, Eduard Müller and Hermann Lange – and the Evangelical-Lutheran pastor Karl Friedrich Stellbrink. All four were executed by beheading on 10 November 1943 less than 3 minutes apart from each other at Hamburg's Holstenglacis Prison (then called Untersuchungshaftanstalt Hamburg-Stadt, in English: Investigative Custody Centre of the City of Hamburg). Eyewitnesses reported that the blood of the four clergymen literally ran together on the guillotine and on the floor. This impressed contemporaries as a symbol of the ecumenical character of the men's work and witness. That interpretation is supported by their last letters from prison, and statements they themselves made during their time of suffering, torture and imprisonment. We are like brothers, Hermann Lange said.

SUMMARY
=======
The Peaceful Revolution (German: Friedliche Revolution) was the process of sociopolitical change that led to the end of the Socialist Unity Party of Germany (SED) in the German Democratic Republic (GDR or East Germany) and the transition to a parliamentary democracy which enabled the reunification of Germany. This turning point was wholly created through the violence-free initiatives, protests, and successful demonstrations, which decisively occurred between the local elections held in May 1989 and the GDR's first free parliamentary election in March 1990.
These events were closely linked to the Soviet Union's decision under the leadership of Mikhail Gorbachev to abandon its hegemony in Eastern Europe as well as the reformist movements that spread through the region as a result. In addition to the Soviet Union's shift in foreign policy – part of its glasnost and perestroika reforms – the GDR's lack of competitiveness within an increasingly global market as well as its sharply rising national debt hastened the destabilization of the SED's one-party state and the success of the revolution.
Those driving the reform process within the GDR included intellectuals and church figures, who had been in underground opposition for several years, the significant amount of people attempting to flee the country – thus displaying a clear sign of the discontentment with the SED regime – as well as the rising number of peaceful demonstrators who were no longer willing to yield to the threat of violence and repression by the authorities.
On account of its hostile response to the reforms implemented within its socialist brother lands, the SED leadership was already increasingly isolated within the Eastern Bloc by the time it finally decided to abstain from the use of force to suppress the ever-larger public demonstrations and permitted the opening of the border at the Berlin Wall on 9 November 1989. Through a change in leadership and a willingness to talk with opponents, the SED initially attempted to win back the political initiative. However, due to the continued political instability and the threat of national bankruptcy, control of the situation increasingly lay with the West German government under Chancellor Helmut Kohl.
From the start of December 1989, the GDR government of Prime Minister Hans Modrow was influenced from a Central Round Table, at which the dissolution of the suppressive state security service, the Stasi, was put into action and preparations were made for free elections. After a sweeping and surprising election win for the conservative and nationalist Alliance for Germany coalition, the political path within the GDR was now clear for a swift reunification of the two German states.
