Hans-Jürgen Syberberg filmography

Hans-Jürgen Syberberg (born 8 December 1935) is a German filmmaker. He emerged in the 1960s as a participant in the New German Cinema. He became known for his combination of playful and theatrical style, inspired by Bertolt Brecht and Richard Wagner, and serious examinations of German culture and society. He received international acclaim in the 1970s and early 1980s. Since the early 1990s, he has been a controversial figure in international cinema due to his political comments about post-war Germany, making his work less available and less discussed in the mainstream.[1][2]
