The original HEIMAT followed the rural life of Maria Simon and her family through the changing landscape of 20th Century Germany, an epic journey from the end of the First World War to 1982. In HEIMAT 2, originally titled "Die Zweite Heimat", we travel back to 1960 and take up the story of Maria's son Hermann who turns his back on his small village and heads to Munich to follow his dream and study music. During this era-defining decade of cultural, social and political revolution, Hermann finds love and friendship among the Bohemian collection of musicians, filmmakers and writers that populate his new life.
