, we see Samuel Meffie running full-tilt through the streets of Dresden. Sam stands out. Not just because he is chasing an ambulance. But because this is 1989. We are in Saxony, deep inside communist East Germany. And Sam is a six-foot-something Black man.
He rushes past a parked police car. The officers sound the siren. Sam stops. He put his hands up. The cops, in the green khaki uniforms of the Deutsche Volkspolizei , get out of the car.
