Max III
Directed by Joachim Tschirner
The third part of the “Maxhütten Cycle.” The camera follows the steelworkers from the “Ernst Thälmann Socialist Labor Brigade.” It becomes clear what hardships they endure every day—working in the heat, dust, and noise—so that they can receive their monthly wages of between 800 and 1,500 marks at the end of the month.
