This dynamic, event-centered anthology offers a new understanding of the hundred-year history of German-language film, from the earliest days of the Kintopp to contemporary productions like The Lives of Others. Eachof the more than eighty essays takes a key date as its starting point & explores its significance for German film history, pursuing its relationship with its social, political, & aesthetic moment. While the essays offer ample temporal & topical spread, this book emphasizes the juxtaposition of famous & unknown stories, granting attention to a wide range of cinematic events. Brief section introductions provide a larger historical & film-historical framework that illuminates the essays within it, offering both scholars & the general reader a setting for the individual texts & figures under investigation.
Cross-references to other essays in the book are included at the close of each entry, encouraging readers not only to pursue familiar trajectories in the development of German film, but also to trace particular figures & motifs across genres & historical periods. Together, the contributions offer a new view of the multiple, intersecting narratives that make up German-language cinema. The constellation that is thus established challenges unidirectional narratives of German film history & charts new ways of thinking about film historiography more broadly.
