Children of the Revolution trailer

Inspired by the student revolutions of 1968, Ulrike Meinhof and Fusako Shigenobu became the leading revolutionaries of their time, as leaders of the Baader Meinhof Group and the Japanese Red Army.

Appalled by the killing in Vietnam, they worked with Palestinian freedom fighters to overthrow capitalism through world revolution.

Packed with extraordinary archive footage, Children of the Revolution sees journalists Bettina Röhl and May Shigenobu explore the lives of their mothers, Ulrike and Fusako, giving us a unique perspective on two of the most notorious "terrorists" in modern history.

With capitalism in crisis and revolution sweeping the Arab world, we look back and ask: what were they fighting for and what have we learned?

There is a just cause in Palestine and Middle east in general. But not with Killing innocent civilians who doesn't have anything to do with the conflict.

May Shigenobu is full of propaganda about her mother

Fusako was a murderer

Looks like she lives on the Seibu Shinjuku line. Might be Nakai station.

REVOLUTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Murmillo1]

But in those days there was enough money to start a revolution.

Many communist students of the sixties/'68 later gained much money.

In our days the economic basis is more troublesome.
