Filmfront Weimar

" Film Front Weimar shows how Germany tried to reconcile the horrendous experiences of the war through the war films made between 1919 and 1933. These films shed light on the way Germany chose to remember its recent past. A body of twenty-five films is analysed. For insight into the understanding and reception of these films at the time, hundreds of film reviews, censorship reports and some popular history books are discussed." "The chapters are ordered thematically: war documentaries, films on the causes of the war, the front life, the war at sea and the home front."--BOOK JACKET.
