Der Filmsammler Trailer (2012)
14 November 2012 Factual 30 mins
Over a period of more than 50 years, tax advisor Wolfgang Schneider acquired over 2,000 35-mm film prints. His collection features classic films by Eisenstein and Godard as well as long-forgotten light entertainment, and shorts. He screened the films in the basement of his bungalow, which he had converted into a private cinema. The prints were housed in his garage, his shed and in a derelict building on a neighbouring plot of land. In 2009 Wolfgang Schneider moved into a care home and the house was sold. Due to its vast size, lack of proper classification and precarious condition, the film collection has yet to find a buyer. It has been moved on several occasions from one ill-equipped storage space to another.
