German Culture Through Film

German Culture through Film: An Introduction to German Cinema and its companion, Arbeitsbuch zu German Culture through Film, provide a flexible means of teaching undergraduate courses in German film. The primary book covers 31 German films in English, and a German language companion volume covers 14 films with an emphasis on German language skills, so a single course using the same films can serve multiple purposes.
