Resumen

Obviously, the so-called “Twenty years of political amnesia” refer to the years before Hitler governed Germany and the years governed by Hitler. The time is named “the period of the Nazi” by historians or declared “the era of the fatherless” by some psychologist. Indeed, many films produced in the 1960s and early 1970s avoid reference to the events of the nearly two decades of Nazi-rule on purpose. With the climax of the New German Cinema, a number of directors and filmmakers bravely embraced the fatherless society.
