Educational Film »People under Suspicion – The Ministry for State Security of the GDR«

What was the “Stasi”? Where and how did the “Stasi” work? What significance did the “Stasi” have for the East-German dictatorship? Reporter Malin Büttner and expert Dr. Ilko-Sascha Kowalczuk try to find the answers to those questions.


The educational film »People under Suspicion – The Ministry for State Security of the GDR« centres interviews with five eye witnesses. They talk about their experiences with repression in the GDR, their political actions and following consequences they had to endure during the dictatorship of the East-German communist party SED. The educational film is addressed to students at an age from 15 years on.
