Shows and movies taking place in historical periods, some with original stories and some with a strong historical basis.
The Nazi Party emerged from the extremist German nationalist, racist and populist Freikorps paramilitary culture, which fought against the communist uprisings in post–World War I Germany. The party was created to draw workers away from communism and into völkisch nationalism. Initially, Nazi political strategy focused on anti–big business, anti-bourgeois, and anti-capitalist rhetoric. This was later downplayed to gain the support of business leaders, and in the 1930s the party's main focus shifted to antisemitic and anti-Marxist themes.
The "Kinotipp der Katholischen Filmkritik" is a label used on filmdienst.de to highlight films that address religious themes in a special way, tell of human hardships, worries and hopes, and formulate answers to existential questions.
