Our Miracle Years

Old guilt and old love (1) (1x3)

:

April 1949. Ulla is finally living her dream: she studies medicine in Tübingen and also works at the university hospital. When she learns of her father's arrest, she returns to Altena. Her mother Christel is certain that Böcker denounced him for having delivered barbed wire to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. If no evidence to the contrary is presented, it looks bad for Eduard. But the old papers were allegedly burned in an air bomb attack. Ulla has an idea. Years ago, her father helped his friend, the Jewish pharmacist Julius Rosen, to escape. He could testify as a reputation witness. So Ulla asks Jürgen to help her. Because Jürgen's father had taken over the local pharmacy when Rosen had to leave town. In the attic they find photos of him and his children and a postcard from his aunt in an old closet. Jürgen now begins to question how his father got to the pharmacy.
