You might enjoy watching the comedy movie "Goodbye Lenin". It does an excellent job of showing walled-in East Germany and the differences after it fell.
The premise is that an East German woman fell into a coma while the wall fell, when she wakes, her kids are told not to tell her so they try to keep up the facade for as long as possible. It's ridiculous, but genuinely funny and a great historical look at the differences.
