Correspondance privée sur un lieu public

Broads

The social democrats of the sixties and seventies worked on their grand plan to build a highway network in Germany that every German citizen could reach within five minutes of their home.

Documentary film from a National Socialist perspective on the political development of Germany from the First World War to the annexation of Austria by the German Wehrmacht.

Berlin people and GDR border guards are interviewed.

Berlin: Symphony of a Great City

A day in the city of Berlin, which experienced an industrial boom in the 1920s, and still provides an insight into the living and working conditions at that time.
