Director Bio : He is a fundamental director in the history of European cinema, an intellectual of note, writer and philosopher. Born in Halberstadt in 1932, he survived the bombing that destroyed his city in 1945. In his youth in Germany he collaborated with T. W. Adorno and made his debut in film as assistant to Fritz Lang. In 1962 he was one of the signatories of the famous Oberhausen Manifesto, starting point of the New German Cinema. His first film, Yesterday Girl, won the Silver Lion in Venice in 1966. Since then, he has constructed an extensive filmography with milestones such as his monumental 9-hour film from 2008 From Ideological Antiquity: Marx/Eisenstein/Capital
