Ku'damm 56 – Rebel with a Cause

While rummaging through old family photos, Monika found proof that the dance school had indeed been confiscated in 1936 from a Jewish family—the Crohns, who had been deported—and given to her parents. But the so-called dispossessed heir is also hiding some truths. Caterina receives confirmation of what she had refused to believe about her husband: Gerd Schöllack is indeed alive and has settled in East Berlin. Meanwhile, a romance blossoms between Eva and Rudi, the young soccer player from the East, and Helga plays the role of the accomplished, modern housewife in a television commercial. Monika asks Freddy to perform with her at Berlin’s first rock competition. That same evening, Joachim Franck is involved in a car accident.
