Selbstbeschreibung

This documentary runs for 80 minutes and features Georg Stefan Troller, who serves as both the director and a central figure in the film. Alongside Troller, the cast includes Alexander Pschill, Nina Hoss, and Stefan Weinert, contributing to a narrative that interweaves personal history and broader historical contexts.

Selbstbeschreibung presents Troller's life story, from his early years in Vienna to his experiences during World War II, culminating in his return as a member of the US army. The film serves as a form of self-exploration, combining autobiographical elements with self-irony. This approach not only highlights Troller's unique perspective as a filmmaker but also engages viewers in a deeper understanding of the historical events that shaped his life.
