Our service

Our collection contains a comprehensive survey of German film history, from expressionist films to the most recent features of contemporary German cinema.

All films are stored at the National Film and Sound Archive and are available on digital format (DVD and blue ray). The discs have English, Spanish and almost always German subtitles. The films are available for rental for non-commercial screenings by all cultural and educational institutions within Australia.
Films cannot be rented to individuals. 

In the online catalogue, you will find a short synopsis as well as information on the stylistic and historical context of the films. These texts are written by renowned film critics and can be used for program announcements free of charge. All texts are available in German, English and Spanish.
