Abstract

It is not merely a sign of continuing Cold War myopia, but it is at least partly that: Upon its release in 1999, Michael Apted's film 42-Up, the latest in his series of 7-Up films begun in 1964, was described in the U.S. as the longest running documentary project in film history.2 But this distinction clearly does not belong to this English-language series, but to the long-term documentary project led by the East Germans Barbara and Winfried Junge: The Children of Golzow. Their project was begun in 1961 and consists of over 120,000 meters of film in the form of 16 separate film releases.3
