hammered out last summer.
Jurgen Klemann, the
Berlin senator for schools, at
first tried to duck the ques-
tion, saying the forum was
for discussing the film.
"I think there should be
another time to speak about
politics," he said.
But Mr. Bubis and the
students pressed the politi-
cian, who is a member of
Chancellor Helmut Kohl's
Christian Democratic
Union, which pushed heav-
ily for a more-restrictive
policy in the asylum law.
The new law prohibits in-
dividuals arriving in Ger-
many from a so-called
"secure" nation from apply-
ing for asylum in Germany.
Mr. Bubis, who is a mem-
ber of the Free Democratic
Party, the junior partner in
Mr. Kohl's coalition
government, said all Ger-
man political parties, in-
cluding his own, were to be
criticized for adopting the
asylum law.
"I expect political parties
to go against public opinion

The film is being
used by some
schools as a

and say, 'No, that's not how
it is,' " he said.
When Mr. Klemann tried
to end the discussion once
again, a woman from the
audience shouted out, "It's
dammed embarrassing.
You're implicating
yourself."
When the discussion later
returned to the film,
students wondered why an
American, and not a Ger-
man, had made the movie.
Mr. Bubis replied that a
German had indeed applied
to the Berlin Film Board for
a $530,000 subsidy to make
the film, but he was turned
down because officials
thought the movie would not
be a commercial success.
According to Mr. Bubis,
the projected German film
was to be called "Angel in
Hell."
Elmar Kampmann, the di-
rector of Martin Buber High
School, noted that Germans
like to see themselves in the
victim's role, and so they
make movies like Das Boot
and Stalingrad,which por-
tray them in that manner.
Mr. Bubis added that the
German film industry is
simply not capable of laun-
ching a grand-scale produc-
tion like Schindler's List. ❑
