The Lives of Others (Leben der Anderen, Das) is a great film about the horror of living under the suppression of the secret police forces. This movie makes me think of Ao Lee, one of the human rights fighters in Taiwan. He was in jail for six years and under the surveillance of secret police for three years. He lost his girlfriend, his youth and his creativity in jail. He never got the luck that the movie's main character has and escaped the fate of imprisonment. I will write more about him next time.
