I Was a German

Berlin, 1933. Heinz goes out to the cinema and never comes home. London, 2023. Clare claims the German citizenship her grandad Heinz gave up, but is it hers to take In the shadow of Brexit, Clare shines a light on her grandfather’s extraordinary true story, taking a journey from the cabaret scene of 1930s Berlin to becoming an 'enemy alien' in 1940s Britain, getting arrested by everyone from the Soviets to Winston Churchill along the way. A vivid account of one Jewish refugee trying to find his way home, and his granddaughter searching for her roots.
