Tarantino-esque alt-history movie idea: In the early 1950s, a CIA psywar operator of Native American descent travels around Canada, tracking down the most sociopathic teachers and priests working in the residential school system, and offers them a chance to redeem themselves by going to West Germany and taking jobs at the de-Germanification centres which the CIA is setting up. Those who refuse are, of course, violently dismembered. (This only happens onscreen once, during the pre-title scene.) Title: "Zavala's Zeroes". Everyone dies at the end.
This is one of the many consequences of Stalin stopping at Berlin
I am coming around to the idea that after 1953 the SED should have taken Brecht's advice and actually dissolved the German people and elected another.

Interesting note: East Germany was famous for its Red Westerns (or particularly "Osterns") which often portrayed the perspective of the natives.

What's a good one? Sounds like a fun movie night
Haven't gotten around to watching one myself but it seems there's enough of a cult following for people to compile lists , at least.
