"Landscapes of death" and memories of the human: distance, scale, and the double map in the first "war-sound-film" (Westfront 1918, [1930], Kameradschaft [1931])
Combat films and their aerial spaces under the Nazi regime (Medal of honor [1938], Squadron Lützow [1940], Above everything in the world [1941])
Out of the war mode: demobilizing the war genre in the postwar rubble-film (Request concert [1940], The great love [1942], Ways into twilight [1949], The sons of Mr. Gaspary [1948], Birds of migration [1946/47]
