Hans-Jürgen Syberberg

German film director

Hans-Jürgen Syberberg worked in film at a period when the medium itself was still changing shape.

The record lists Hans-Jürgen Syberberg as German film director.

Hans-Jürgen Syberberg was born at Nossendorf in 1935. His recorded nationality is Germany. He trained at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München.

This generation broke the studio mould - lighter cameras, location shooting, and directors who claimed authorship of the finished film.

The record gives his roles in the industry as film director, film producer and film editor.

The screen flattens effort: a performance that took months reads as a few unhurried minutes.

The awards record reads: Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany.

That the work was made from Germany shaped it: national industries differ in what they finance, who they cast and which audiences they can reach.
