Abstract: This dvd contains two films produced in Germany during the Nazi era, Die Deutsche Wochenschau and Frau am Steuer a feature film released in 1939. The first, Die Deutsche Wochenschau, is a German newsreel which might have played in front of the feature film. The newsreel begins as Dr. Goebbels and Albert Speer address workers at a tank factory in Germany. Events on both the North African and Eastern fronts are then shown, including American bombardment of German positions in Tunisia. Dog fights between Allied and German fighter planes in North Africa are presented along with footage of a captured British fighter pilot. In Frau am Steuer, Maria Kelemen is a secretary in the Bank of Budapest. Her employer, director Borden, constantly flirts with her at work. Herr Borden is unaware that Maria is secretly engaged to Paul. On the day that Maria and Paul are married, Paul loses his job. When Herr Borden visits their home, Maria tells him that Paul is her brother.
