This three part series from the point of view of five German friends during world war two was a lot more then I expected in the first place, not only are they cinematically very well made, also is it showing very well the dark sides of the war. The character development of the 5 friends during the curse of the three series is only showing how well the acting is. Considering this is a "television show" and there is not really a big budget behind the project, and no fancy director it's very well put together. It had to be done at some point and I'm glad Germans were able to put it together in such a good way. During the time the show was running on the television and it was discussed in the newspaper that young people don't get told a lot from the war from their parents or grandparents for obvious reasons and the series is probably a good way to give them understanding why they have concerns sharing memories. This is also the explanation of the name of the series.
