Henke finally met in 1989 through a friendly band to Bruno Kramm and Stefan Ackermann. These had barely released the musical label Danse Macabre and were later to form the group Das Ich. With the support of Kramm Henke and Seipt recorded the film The Mirror, whose path leads to the end through mute witnesses and a live tape that appeared in 1990.
