  • "In 1961 on the Eastern side of a Germany divided, "The Promise" tells the story of Konrad and Sophie - two teenagers who've planned their escape to the West. As Sophie successfully flees, Konrad falters, and at that moment they both realize their lives will never be the same. The two are forced to live apart despite the fact that a torch still burns between them. Only when the Wall comes crumbling down can the flood of buried emotions break free."
  • "Two teenaged lovers in East Germany plan their escape to the West. The girl escapes and the boy stays behind. They are forced to live apart despite their continued love, until the Berlin Wall crumbles."
  • "East-Berlin, 1961, shortly after the erection of the Wall. Konrad, Sophie and three of their friends plan a daring escape to Western Germany. The attempt is successful, except for Konrad, who remains behind. From then on, and for the next 28 years, Konrad and Sophie will attempt to meet again, in spite of the Iron Curtain. Konrad, who has become a reputed Astrophysicist, tries to take advantage of scientific congresses outside Eastern Germany to arrange encounters with Sophie. But in a country where the political police, the Stasi, monitors the moves of all suspicious people (such as Konrad's sister Barbara and her husband Harald), preserving one's privacy, ideals and self-respect becomes an exhausting fight, even as the Eastern block begins its long process of disintegration."
