”Young Till is a sensitive, headstrong boy. On March 19, 1970 he sees Willy Brandt(West German chancellor) on West German television, visiting Erfurt and making an appearance at a window of the Erfurter Hof. For hours, the child runs screaming: “Willy Brandt at the window! Willy Brandt at the window!” His apprenticeship with a carpenter at Rostock-Schmarl: “Here’s a log. Now make it a window!, Lindemann: I’ll make you a window out of a log by the end of the day!”
