"Oijoijoi" – The father of the pancake devil on his 100th birthday.
Short film programme
D: Lothar Barke, GDR 1954 to 1984, approx. 90 min.
Lothar Barke, the creator of the cult animated film Alarm im Kasperletheater, could have celebrated his 100th birthday on 20 January. He wanted to bring joy to children in particular with his films. The DIAF remembers the "East German Disney".
Barke was one of the few who already had experience in this profession when the DEFA animation studio was founded in Dresden in 1955. For this reason, and above all because of his remarkable talent for drawing and his feeling for movement, he was one of the leading directors until the end of the studio. His films show a preference for the lively, figurative animation practised by his Soviet colleagues and Disney at the time. He developed brilliantly narrated, exciting and highly imaginative animated films for children from children's books and fairy tales.
- Admission € 7
