action
On July 13, 1930, Berliners were wearing coats, hats and scarves, it was cold. Only a few athletes are bare-chested. People have been marching "since the early hours of the morning" through the working-class quarters of Berlin, past bystanders and sympathizers. The goal is the Volkspark Rehberge , where the workers' organizations of the whole city organize a big festival. The police are vigilant in all of this.
background
The Hamburg film journalist Thomas Tode thinks the film is “unique within the films of the labor movement” because it shows how “people are proud of their class”. Jutzi documents a specific working-class culture that did not have a long life in Germany. With National Socialism , the KPD , SPD and the trade unions were replaced by the “ German Labor Front ”.
