A Night Divided
- Main Conflict
- Problem: Gerta and her brother Fritz start
digging a tunnel to get under the Berlin wall
and over to West Berlin, but when the
Grenzers (Police) become suspicious of
Gerta and her brother, they have to start
digging faster and faster before the
Grenzers take Fritz to join them.
- Cause: Gerta's father and brother, Dominic, were staying in West Berlin the night that the wall went up.
Gerta was walking on her way to school one day and saw her father on a platform on the other side of
the wall. Her father, Aldous, was doing a dance that they did as a kid and was motioning to dig and kept
doing that for a couple of days. Greta got in trouble one day for watching the wall so she wasn't aloud to
stare at the wall anymore like she used to. One day, Gerta got a letter from her friend Anna. The letter
was a picture of an old store and Gerta assumed that was where she was supposed to dig. She started
digging there with the help of her brother but since there was so much mud, she had to disguise the mud
inside her bed sheets and wash them in the pond nearby. The grenzers then got suspicious of them and
even one of the Grenzers learned their secret but kept it as long as he could come with.
