Der Baader Meinhof Komplex follows the radical left-wing group known as the Red Army Faction (RAF), active in West Germany from 1970 to 1998. The film focuses on the group's leader, Andreas Baader (portrayed by Moritz Bleibtreu), and his girlfriend, Gudrun Ensslin (played by Johanna Wokalek). The narrative begins with their involvement in various acts of protest and arson against the German political establishment, which escalates into a series of bank robberies and violent attacks. The film chronicles their trial at the Stammheim prison, where they are found guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment in 1977. The story culminates with the 'Stammheim massacre' on October 18, 1977, when Ensslin, Baader, and fellow RAF member Jan-Carl Raspe commit suicide within hours of each other.
Der Baader Meinhof Komplex is a biographical thriller directed by Uli Edel, based on the book of the same name by Stefan Aust. The film provides an inside look at the radical left-wing group, the Red Army Faction (RAF), who were active in West Germany during the Cold War era. The movie explores themes of political extremism, social unrest, and the consequences of ideological conviction. It is significant for its comprehensive portrayal of the RAF's activities, trial, and eventual demise.
