Our Time in the Garden Movie Review 1981

Home movies taken 50 years ago present the true story of a young Jewish woman growing up in Berlin. Her secure life behind her family's walled garden is shattered by Hitler's rise to power and the family's decision to abandon their home in Germany. The home movies have been enhanced through special-effects photography and combined with overlapping sound tracks to recreate the time period.
