Best known for his 1979 film David, Peter Lilienthal was an unusual
figure within postwar filmmaking circles. A child refugee from Nazi
Germany who grew up in Uruguay, he was uniquely situated at the
crossroads of German, Jewish, and Latin American cultures: while
his work emerged from West German auteur filmmaking, his films bore
the unmistakable imprints of Jewish thought and the militant
character of New Latin American cinema. Peter Lilienthal is the
first comprehensive study of Lilienthal's life and career,
highlighting the distinctively cross-cultural and transnational
dimensions of his oeuvre, and exploring his role as an early
exemplar of a more vibrant, inclusive European film culture.
