About This Movie

So, here we have 'DEFA – Es werden ein paar Filme bleiben,' a documentary that dives into the world of Deutsche-Film AG.

The tone feels reflective, almost nostalgic at times, as it showcases not just the numbers—like nearly 700 feature films—but also the cultural significance behind those works.
