How was life in the destroyed German cities after the Nazis were defeated?
A Day in Dresden 1946 provides a glimpse. Elli Göbel guides viewers through post-war Dresden's ruins. As a war widow and one of millions displaced from the former German eastern territories, this young woman finds work as a 'Trümmerfrau', helping rebuild the devastated city. To care for her children, Elli demonstrates immense resourcefulness, especially in the face of dire supply shortages. For the prospect of a better life, she sometimes pushes the boundaries of what's allowed. When she learns of a violin audition from a newspaper, Elli takes a risk, sneaking away from her rubble-clearing job to procure an instrument from the black market. However, when the police arrive and arrest her, she faces potential imprisonment and losing her children. This fictional biography, rooted in real historical events, offers deep insights into the everyday struggles of the post-war era, illuminating the intimate connection between documentary storytelling and the haunting ruins of the past.
