Directors from China, the Soviet Union, Italy, Brazil, and France tell a story from the lives of five women – a collaborative effort by filmmakers who had never seen each other before. Well-known actors and writers contributed to an episode film that was regarded as semi-documentary by audiences and critics and whose documentary power is captivating even today. The film stands out for its sociocritical attitude and realistic aesthetics. It is intensely atmospheric, incorporated short story techniques into filmmaking, combined a feature film plot with documentary film methods, maintained national styles in subject and execution, replaced dubbed dialogues by narrative comments, nationality by internationality, collectivity by individuality – astounding, simple and convincing. A new Ivens. He developed the idea and concept; he oversaw the integration of the episodes into a whole that was both innovative and groundbreaking. “I was ahead most of the time. And I want to stay there.”

A worker is rolling a barrel through the workshop. He is distracted; the barrel escapes and causes some damage. At last it ends up at the factory gate where the worker catches up with it. A sign displays the moral lesson: “Avoid accidents! Use the barrel roller!” Slapstick agitation for industrial safety.

Amateurfilmstudio Kulturhaus der Eisenbahner “7. November” Leipzig
Directed by a sound engineer of the Leipzig DEFA Sound and Dubbing Studio and produced by a team consisting mostly of non-employees – an example of the fact that “the societal sponsorship of the people’s artistic creation” had ossified into formality. A member of the studio has cast himself in the lead: as a private plumber. This satire on the constant shortages in the service industry was produced for the “Eulenspiegel” amateur film competition.
