Set in Berlin, Germany, in 1961, Blue Heaven's Tent tells the story of Klaus Franke, whose life is changed forever when he wakes one morning to find himself separated from his family by barbed wire. Now trapped in Communist East Germany, Klaus grows increasingly desperate to escape as the barbed wire develops into the infamous Berlin Wall. Meanwhile, his wife, Gerda, is stuck in West Berlin raising their two children as a single parent. When Klaus is thrown into political prison, Gerda waits to hear-but fears to learn-of her husband's fate.
