A gripping report shot at the Brandenburg steel and rolling mill from a visiting Austrian director's point of view. Void of any propagandistic interpretation, the film captures both the dynamic forces and the hazards involved in this work.
This portrait of East German sculptor and graphic artist Fritz Cremer (1906-1993) shows the artist at work in his studio and some of his art works, including sculptures for his Buchenwald Memorial. It accompanies the images with a text by Bertolt Brecht, read by actor Wolfgang Heinz of the Deutsches Theater in Berlin.
