Directory of World Cinema: Germany aims
to offer a wider film and cultural context for the films that
have emerged from Germany—including some of the East German
films recently made available to Western audiences for the
first time. With contributions by leading academics and
emerging scholars in the field, this volume explores the key
directors, themes, and periods in German film history, and
demonstrates how genres have been adapted over time to fit
historical circumstances. Rounding out this addition to the
Directory of World Cinema series are fifty full-color stills,
numerous reviews and recommendations, and a comprehensive
filmography.
