By the time the Berlin Wall collapsed, the cinema of the German
Democratic Republic-to the extent it was considered at all-was
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 GDR's rich and varied filmic output. In Re-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 DEFA's complex
post-unification "afterlife."
