Kino der Moderne: Film in der Weimarer Republik/The Modern Cinema: The Role of Film in the Weimar Republic
x Im Kino der Moderne betrachtet sich die Gesellschaft selbst. Die Leinwand wird zum Spiegelbild, indem sie Alltagsthemen und -typen reflektiert und zugleich selbst zum Leitmedium aufsteigt, das Vorbilder und Ideale setzt. Mode und Sport, Mobilitat und urbanes Leben, Genderfragen und die Popularitat der Psychoanalyse, die gesellschaftlichen Auswirkungen des Ersten Weltkriegs - all das spiegelt sich im Film der Weimarer Republik. Das reich bebilderte Buch kann aus den bedeutenden Sammlungen der Deutschen Kinemathek schopfen, zahlreiche Fotografien und Dokumente werden erstmals veroffentlicht.
Modern cinema provides society with an image of itself.

The richly illustrated book draws on major collections of the “Deutsche Kinemathek,” presenting numerous photographs and documents for the first time.
