Question: Do both Olympia (1938 Film) and The Wave (2008 Film) films have the directors from the same country?

<P0-S0> Dennis Gansel( born 4 October 1973) is a German film director, writer and actor. <SEP> <P1-S0> Die Welle (The Wave) is a 2008 German socio-political thriller film directed by Dennis Gansel and starring Jürgen Vogel, Frederick Lau, Jennifer Ulrich and Max Riemelt in the leads. <P1-S1> It is based on Ron Jones' social experiment The Third Wave and Todd Strasser's novel, "The Wave". <P1-S2> The film was produced by Christian Becker for Rat Pack Filmproduktion. <P1-S3> It was successful in German cinemas, and after ten weeks, 2.3 million people had watched it. <SEP> <P2-S0> Olympia is a 1938 German documentary sports film written, directed and produced by Leni Riefenstahl, which documented the 1936 Summer Olympics, held in the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany. <P2-S1> The film was released in two parts:" Olympia 1. Teil — Fest der Völker"( Festival of Nations) and" Olympia 2. Teil — Fest der Schönheit"( Festival of Beauty). <P2-S2> It was the first documentary feature film of an Olympic Games ever made. <P2-S3> Many advanced motion picture techniques, which later became industry standards but which were groundbreaking at the time, were employed, including unusual camera angles, smash cuts, extreme close- ups and placing tracking shot rails within the bleachers. <P2-S4> The techniques employed are almost universally admired, but the film is controversial due to its political context. <P2-S5> Nevertheless, it appears on many lists of the greatest films of all time, including" Time" magazine's" All- Time 100 Movies." <P2-S6> " Olympia" set the precedent for future films documenting and glorifying the Olympic Games, particularly the Summer Games. <P2-S7> The 1936 Summer Olympics torch relay was devised for the Games by the secretary general of the Organizing Committee, Dr. Carl Diem. <P2-S8> Riefenstahl staged the torch relay for the film, with competitive events of the Games. <P2-S9> Although restricted to six camera positions on the stadium field, Riefenstahl set up cameras in as many other places as she could, including in the grandstands. <P2-S10> She attached automatic cameras to balloons, including instructions to return the film to Leni Riefenstahl, and she also placed automatic cameras in boats during practice runs. <P2-S11> Amateur photography was used to supplement that of the professionals along the course of races. <P2-S12> Perhaps the greatest innovation seen in" Olympia" was the use of an underwater camera. <P2-S13> The camera followed divers through the air and, as soon as they hit the water, the cameraman dived down with them, all the while changing focus and aperture. <SEP> <P3-S0> Jacob Matschenz( born 1984, Berlin) is a German actor. <P3-S1> He is notable for film and television work including" The Wave"( 2008)," 12 Paces Without a Head"( 2009) and" The Sinking of the Laconia"( 2010). <P3-S2> He won the Adolf Grimme Award in 2008 for his appearance in" An die Grenze". <SEP> <P4-S0> The Chaser is a 1938 film. <SEP> <P5-S0> Helene Bertha Amalie" Leni" Riefenstahl( 22 August 1902 – 8 September 2003) was a German film director and actress. <P5-S1> A talented swimmer and artist, she also became interested in dancing during her childhood, taking dancing lessons and performing across Europe. <P5-S2> After seeing a promotional poster for the 1924 film" Der Berg des Schicksals The Mountain of Destiny"), Riefenstahl was inspired to move into acting. <P5-S3> Between 1925 and 1929, she starred in five successful motion pictures. <P5-S4> Riefenstahl became one of the few women in Germany to direct a film during the Weimar Period when, in 1932, she decided to try directing with her own film called" Das Blaue Licht The Blue Light"). <P5-S5> In the 1930s, she directed the Nazi propaganda films" Triumph des Willens Triumph of the Will") and" Olympia", resulting in worldwide attention and acclaim. <P5-S6> The movies are widely considered two of the most effective, and technically innovative, propaganda films ever made. <P5-S7> Her involvement in" Triumph des Willens", however, significantly damaged her career and reputation after the war. <P5-S8> Hitler was in close collaboration with Riefenstahl during the production of at least three important Nazi films, and they formed a friendly relationship. <P5-S9> Some have argued that Riefenstahl's visions were essential to the carrying out of the mission of the Holocaust. <P5-S10> After the war, Riefenstahl was arrested, but classified as being a" fellow traveler" or" Nazi sympathizer" only and was not associated with war crimes. <P5-S11> Throughout her life, she denied having known about the Holocaust. <P5-S12> Besides directing, Riefenstahl released an autobiography and wrote several books on the Nuba people. <P5-S13> Riefenstahl died of cancer on 8 September 2003 at the age of 101 and was buried at Munich Waldfriedhof.
