was that I didn’t want to make a classic political film. I wanted to
break with that tradition a little bit’” (Weingart ner qtd. in Leal
2012, 124).
The problem with Heimweh, and the way nostalgia is too of-
ten conceptualized, is that the personal does not tend to be po-
litical but rather remains individual. Memories tend to be one’s
own personal memories, of the house one grew up in, the school
one went to, etc. It is here that the post-memory of visual culture
has made an impact, especially via social media. The privileged
generations born in the aftermath of the summer of love may
not have any personal memories of it, but not only are they well
aware of its style, they seem happy to have at least the chance
to buy into it. Weingart ner’s oeuvre encourages us to ask what
kind of futures that forecloses, and what kinds it makes possible.
