Heimat los!

After Alexander Granach's autobiography, the ravishing memoirs of his son GadThe autobiography of the famous actor Alexander Granach has inspired with its vitality and humanity for decades. His son Gad not only tells his father's story to the end. He also creates a ravishing, politically completely incorrect and therefore immensely human portrait of the generation that managed to escape to Palestine in the 1930s. Not an easy fate for the life-hungry young Gad, who came from bustling Berlin with Goethe and Tucholsky in his luggage, only to find himself in a kibbutz wrested from the brittle land ... Gad Granach's autobiographical account is an object lesson about Berlin in the thirties and about the emergence of Israel, a document full of liberating wit and incorruptible wisdom - a witness of the century.
