One of my favorites is the musical Heißer Sommer. It's like the DDR's solution to Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello. There's a line in one of the songs that translates to something like, "We're a collective not a gang!" Definitely not as heavy as Fassbinder.

I don't know about the Marzuk film, but I can assure you that they are many German films out there that are not as "heavy" as Der weisse Band or a Fassbinder film. Here is the link to a LibGuide I prepared highlighting the many German (and Dutch!) language feature films that we have here at USC: http://libguides.usc.edu/germandufilm Mit freundlichen Grüssen/Met groetjes!

I am not sure if has been shown in the U.S. in theaters. It has been released on DVD in Germany (Region 2). The film appears to the German version of High School Musical. Our German professor is trying to find German films to show his students that are not as serious as a Fassbinder film. They would like more films like In July or Soul Kitchen than Run Lola Run or The White Band. Eileen Karsten Head of Technical Services Donnelley & Lee Library Lake Forest College 555 N.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
