Summer task 2

Deutschland 83 is a series about a divided Germany in 1983 it stars a 24 year old East German soldier who is a German solider but also a undercover spy for the HVA the foreign intelligence agency of the Stasi, the show was aired on channel 4 and premiered on the 15 June 2015 and is still going today with a new series coming out in 19 October 2018 and will be renamed to Deutschland 89 with the previous series being called Deutschland 86 because obviously of the dates the show are set 1983,1986,1989. The main character Martin Rauch being the undercover East German soldier who is clearly trying to discover weaknesses in the opposite side and report back to his superiors with the information so they can take advantages of those weaknesses. In the trailer from Channel 4 about the series of Deutschland 83 you can see the different outfits Martin wears when he is a generic German soldier and when he is doing his undercover work which makes him look like a civilian so he can blend in with other people and get to locations without being seen. Also in the trailer you can see a lot of shots of Martin running away like he has just been caught and has to get away and this can also prove that the film will be a action and a drama meaning it will never really be that boring if it is the type of genre you like this also means this can be seen as a hybrid (when two genres in one film like scary movie with its horror and comedy) however action and drama is quite a simple hybrid meaning that the two aren't two opposites of each other like horror and comedy they are different to that because they flow quite well together to begin with so you don't have to alter the story. As well as this the trailer shows that the series will have some violence because around halfway through the trailer you can see a character pull a gun on another person as they open the door meaning this would also draw the attention of other viewers who enjoy series with violence in it and unlike other others this one was clearly very successful because of the two new series's one already out and another coming out soon meaning the company made enough money from the first two series to make a new one. When Martin is in his hometown in the trailer you can see the emotions on his face or better way of saying it the lack of emotions because of the clear memories he sees every time he visits his town and how he doesn't know how to deal with them because he might have had a tough upbringing or something tragic happen when he was younger that meant he thought of joining the army and become a spy for the East which if caught he would most likely be killed because it was seen as a very serious crime to commit back in 1983.Finally this was only a view of what we saw in the trailer so the actually series might be very different we just don't know right now.
