Werkstatt Zukunft I

Questions about ideas about the future are usually only answered in very general terms. In the "Workshop Future", everyday people have the opportunity to communicate their ideas and wishes through pictures. What will work look like in the next millennium, will everything be done by machines, what is behind the concept? Will work be more and more thinking? What will it look like in the household, what ideas do mothers have for the kindergarten of the future? Inspired by various ideas, visions of the future are to be presented together with the thinking viewer.

Directed by Joachim Hellwig, Werkstatt Zukunft I leans on a strong ensemble — Ilona Grandke, Elvira Grecki, Klaus Bamberg — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1975.
