In her autobiography, the author describes her life as a child, teenager and single mother. It is the post-war period and takes place in the GDR until 1989. She tries to understand what influenced and shaped her. Her path through life is repeatedly blocked and called into question by historical, political and private changes. The family gradually breaks apart due to the division of Germany. The home village is bulldozed and other social ties are destroyed. In a country surrounded by walls and firing ranges, there is neither freedom of expression nor freedom to travel. When she tries to apply for a trip abroad, the situation finally escalates completely. To escape further reprisals, her only option is to separate from her children and flee to Hungary. The question remains: will everything turn out all right?
