Abstract

The article focuses on the evolution and cultural significance of German mountain films, particularly during the Weimar cinema of the 1920s and 1930s. Topics include the genre's exploration of modernist oppositions, its role in reflecting and shaping debates about masculinity and gender roles, and the ongoing challenges in defining the mountain film genre beyond the works of Fanck, Trenker, and Riefenstahl.
