1:12:20Now PlayingThe fall of the Berlin Wall twenty-five years ago was more than a symbolic end to divided Europe, but it was neither a planned nor an official act. Sarotte, visiting professor of history and government at Harvard, shows that the momentous event was in fact the surprise result of a confluence of popular movements and Stasi disgruntlement.
