Descrizione:The German production Heimat (1984) by director Edgar Reitz consists of 11 feature films that deal mainly with World War I and World War II; in addition to the psychological, social and economic repercussions that these historical events generate in the inhabitants. This set of films focuses on a rural space called Schabbach. In that place, the development and evolution of a genealogy that is subject to the relationship between María and Paul Simon can be seen, but from a dissociated perspective. Individualistic situations will prevail, such as moving away from the family nucleus to be a supporter of the war, migrating to other locations, seeking to improve oneself, avoiding one’s peers or living in memory. In this sense, this investigation will be based on the characters’ motivations and interdisciplinary analysis will be used, an epistemology typical of Cultural Studies, to confront and explain that social reality in the face of war.
