Overview
Student unrest in 1967/68: a spirit of optimism at universities. This six-part series aims to illustrate this turning point in the attitude towards life and in the consciousness of our society. Ali Jankowski and his fellow student Kajott study in a small town, not in Berlin, where things are particularly turbulent. But even here, Ali feels that he cannot concentrate solely on his studies.
