西方

We are in East Berlin, 1978. It’s summer, three years after Wassilly’s death. Nelly’s boyfriend and Alexei’s father died in a car accident in Russia. Since he is dead, Nelly wants to leave too. Away from the GDR, to leave the grief and the memories behind. To get a fresh start. That should be possible in the West, or so Nelly believes.

把《西方》放在电影背景下看，We are in East Berlin, 1978会更容易理解，年份、地区和语言也能先帮观众判断口味。
