The Airlift

Berlin 1948: In der von der russischen Armee besetzten Stadt werden die Lebensmittel knapp. Der vom Krieg gezeichneten Bevölkerung droht eine Hungerkatastrophe, sollte die Rote Armee sich weiter weigern, die Blockade aufzugeben. Doch Moskau bleibt unnachgiebig. Der berühmte Hilferuf Ernst Reuters an die Völker der Welt, Berlin nicht preiszugeben, bleibt nicht ungehört. Unter der Leitung des amerikanischen Generals Turner wird ein ausgeklügeltes System eingeführt, die Stadt aus der Luft zu versorgen. Die Luftbrücke rettete einer Stadt das Leben.

Two-part historic drama about a difficult love affair between a German woman and an American soldier during the Berlin Airlift. After her husband Axel has been considered dead, Luise Kielberg has to survive as single mother of a 12-year-old boy in Postwar Berlin. At the beginning of the Soviet Blockade in 1948, she works as waitress at the Tempelhof Airport and gets to know General William Turner, one of the most influential aides of General Clay to organize the American airlifts. Luise becomes his personal secretary and falls in love with him, but suddenly Axel returns...

1944-et írunk, a II. világháború szörnyű eseményei zajlanak, amikor Axel Kielberg-et behívják a frontra. Nem sokkal később azonban már az a hír járja róla, hogy elesett a harcokban. Felesége, Louise így kénytelen egyedül boldogulni és gondoskodni kisfiúkról, Michael-ről, ezért pincérnői állást vállal a repülőtér kaszinójában. Amikor az oroszok elvágják a Nyugattól a szállítók útját, Truman elrendeli az amerikaiak visszavonulását.
