Erich Kästner (1899-1974) is one of the most popular German-language authors. The retrospective brings together first film adaptations of his novels in which the writer himself took part, as well as remakes since the 1970s. Also shown are films from the National Socialist era whose screenplays were written by Kästner, who was banned from publishing in Germany after 1933 and from 1943 onwards, under a pseudonym or completely unnamed.
