It has been 100 years since the start of the First World War. More than 10 million people lost their lives between 1914 and 1918, and twice as many were injured or crippled. Almost 40 states were directly or indirectly involved in the bloody struggle for power and influence, colonies, resources and market share. The First World War was a significant theme for the film artists of the DEFA, the East German fi lm company founded in 1946. The suffering of working people, the misery of life in the factories and poor accommodation in cities, the growing organisation of resistance to warmongers and profiteers, as well as the battle for a better world are the topics of this extraordinary collection of films by the film artists of DEFA. This incredible limited edition set contains 10 moving WWI films: THE KAISER’S LACKEY, THE GIRLS IN GINGHAM, AS LONG AS THERE’S LIFE IN ME, IN SPITE OF EVERYTHING, THE SAILOR’S SONG, THE WOMAN AND THE STRANGER, FAREWELL WOLZ, LIFE AND ILLUSION OF A GERMAN ANARCHIST, WHEN MARTIN WAS FOURTEEN, KATHE KOLLWITZ – PICTURES FROM HER LIFE.
