Some people in East Germany in the late 1970s are very unhappy with life in that country. They plan to escape to West Germany in a balloon.
This is a simple story. There isn't much tension since we already know from the start how it will end, but that doesn't completely spoil the enjoyment of the film. It is reasonably entertaining, but fails to communicate to the viewer the initial anguish and eventual exhilaration felt by its characters.
