Live and act

Little is known about Schönmetzler's career. Shortly after the end of the First World War , he came to film and began his professional career as an assistant director in the early 1920s, including in 1923 for Manfred Noa's monumental two-part film Helena . A little later, Schönmetzler switched to production management, where he was responsible for a wide range of entertainment films from 1926 until shortly before the start of the war in 1939. In the same year 1939, UFA gave him production management for the first time. During the Second World War, Schönmetzler worked as a production, manufacturing and, most recently, manufacturing group leader at UFA. Since Hans Schönmetzler can no longer be proven after the end of the war in 1945, he could have died in the last days of the war.
