Bibliography
By the time the Berlin Wall collapsed, the cinema of the German Democratic Republicto the extent it was considered at allwas widely regarded as a footnote to European film history, with little of enduring value. Since then, interest in East German cinema has exploded, inspiring innumerable festivals, books, and exhibits on the GDRs rich and varied filmic output. InRe-Imagining DEFA, leading international experts take stock of this vibrant landscape and plot an ambitious course for future research, one that considers other cinematic traditions, brings genre and popular works into the fold, and encompasses DEFAs complex post-unification afterlife.
Sebastian Heiduschke is Associate Professor in the School of Language, Culture, and Society, and Affiliate Faculty in the School of Writing, Literature, and Film at Oregon State University. He has published the monographDEFA: East German Cinema and Film History (2013) and essays on the marketing, distribution, and fan cultures of DEFA film.
