Taking Sides

T72512330
The moral risks of misjudging history are looked at in this moving drama. Can any artist ever claim to be above politics? In occupied Berlin 1946, amongst the rubble of war an American Army interrogator confronts one of the 20th Century's greatest orchestral conductors - Wilhelm Furtwangler - with this fundamental, timeless question.
