Dangerous Journey is a multi-part series by DEFA on behalf of the German TV Broadcasting Corporation (DFF). It was produced in six episodes in 1971 and 1972 and premiered in March and April 1972 and repeated in June and July 1973.
The film is a contribution by DEFA to the portrayal of West Germany in the post-war period in 1949, as it corresponds to the ideological self- image of the GDR : According to this, fascism is a consequence of the chauvinistic and imperialist elements of finance capital (see Dimitrov thesis ), which is above all the demarcation from Enables the West, which has not yet overcome fascism due to prevailing capitalism. The film is supposed to document that (and why) the Federal Republic cannot cope with coming to terms with National Socialism.
