Life
From 1946 Hans Domnick was the studio manager at the newly founded Film Aufbau GmbH Göttingen . In 1949 he started his own business as a producer. He celebrated great success in the 1950s with the Curt Goetz films Das Haus in Montevideo , gynecologist Dr. Praetorius and hocus-pocus . He filmed these works again in the 1960s, this time in color, cinemascope and with Heinz Rühmann in the leading roles.
In 1958 he traveled with his wife Margrit (1911–2003) and equipped with various selected cars and Cinemascope cameras down the Panamericana from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego . The result was the two-part documentary Panamericana - The World's Dream Road , which received the Silver Bear in 1958 . In 1968 he brought out this milestone of the documentary in a newly edited version.
His brother, the experimental filmmaker Ottomar Domnick (Jonas 1957), also had a production company.
