Our take
In his debut feature film, Markus Dietrich tackles some semi-autobiographical subject matter, capturing the momentous November 9, 1989 fall of the Berlin Wall from the perspective of his 10-year-old self. An imaginative action-adventure, Sputnik is a wacky, one-of-a-kind and kid-friendly film.
