This film is inspirational, intense, and very sad to see
what people had to endure during such difficult times in history. The quality
of this film is very good; it captures the realism of the events that took
place. While I was watching this film I could understand why the youth of Germany
could get themselves involved with the RAF. Being educated can change a lot of
things as well as knowing and understanding what is going on around you in the
world. The Baader-Meinhof group decided to take action if they didn’t
like something for example an institution they would make sure that the world
knew how they felt and express their emotions in a very questionable way.
Harmful bombings, robberies, and attacks were attached to the RAF. I can
understand not liking the struggle that life puts you through sometimes but nether
less such actions aren’t required to get attention. People can always find a
way to get their point across it doesn’t have to be violence. For example think
about Martin Luther King who made sure that everyone knew he stood against
violence and made huge changes without it. The RAF got crazy they let their
feelings take over their lives and starting with the bombings. Once they
started to do all of these horrible things such as robbing banks, bombing
buildings, and using guns doing bad things became very easy for the RAF
members. Things just got way out of control very fast and the violence took
over the group. When the time came for the group to commit suicide a lot of
people just viewed the RAF as terrorists because of all the harm they caused to
try to express what they wanted. They clearly did it the wrong way. I started
to feel bad for the members of this group because I can understand they wanted
people to have their views as well but they did too many horrible things to not
have a bad ending.
