Blok tematyczny: DEFA: Division as Identity
Jörg Foth’s lecture on Deutsche Film AG (a German film studio), DEFA for short, which used to be the only film studio in the GDR. Up until 1992 DEFA has produced 700 feature films, 750 animated films, and over 2,000 documentary films, short- and full-length. These materials have been considered exceptionally precious since the 90s by scientists and hobbyists, especially in the USA.
