The film Faust was a German film magazine with a decidedly international orientation, underlined by the addition of magazine for the international film and later International film magazine .

The magazine was seen by its founders in the tradition of an idea that was pursued by Sergei Eisenstein and other filmmakers in 1917 . The direction Eisenstein formulated at the time can be illustrated with a quote:

“We don't need a 'film eye', but a 'film fist'. The Soviet film has to drum on the skull! Not 'through the united eyesight of millions of eyes we will fight against the world of the bourgeoisie' (Vertow), because then we would be very energetically put millions of violets under these millions of eyes! "

- Sergei Eisenstein
