Der verzauberte Tag
Peter Pewas
Winnie Markus, Ernst Waldow
This film tells the unusually sensitive story of two women who try to cope with men, one a pragmatic gold digger type, not unsympathetic though, the other a dreamer who falls in love with a man in a magic moment ... or so she thinks.
The Enchanted Day
Straßenbekanntschaft
Peter Pewas
Gisela Trowe, Alice Treff
The film centres around the young woman Erika, desperately seeking for love and escape from the depression of the times, drifting, and in the end becoming involved with a circle of rich people who sell goods for sexual favours.
Street Acquaintances
Alexanderplatz überrumpelt
Peter Pewas
These fragments of a documentary film project by Peter Pewas about Berlin’s Alexanderplatz show the neon signs on the big department stores, but also children playing unsupervised amid the rubble of vacant lots, passers-by trudging hurriedly through the slush, and a torchlight procession of Nazi storm troopers – a heterogeneous social reality. The film was never completed because the director was arrested by the Gestapo and the footage seized.
