MoMA: Roberto Rossellini
«Deutschland im Jahre Null» ("Germany Year Zero") 1947. Italy/Germany.
Screenplay by Rossellini, Carlo Lizzani, Max Kolpet. With Edmund Moeschke,
Ernst Pittshau. Shot among the ruins of postwar Berlin, this rarely seen film
recognized the infectious power of Nazi ideology that lingered after the
physical destruction of Germany. A twelve-year-old boy, one year younger than
the Third Reich itself, commits a horrendous crime.
Rossellini: "Whether he excites pity or horror I do not know, nor did I
wish to know."
In German, English subtitles. 73 min.
