A harrowing and visually stunning adaptation of Erich Maria Remarque’s classic anti-war novel, All Quiet on the Western Front follows a young German soldier, Paul Bäumer, as he confronts the brutal realities of World War I. Swept up in patriotic fervor, Paul and his classmates enlist eagerly, only to find themselves trapped in the mud and bloody futility of the trenches. Winner of multiple Academy Awards, including Best International Feature, the film is a weighty indictment of war’s dehumanizing effects and a poignant reflection on the horrors of violence.

This screening is presented as part of the Autumn 2025 Filmbar Series, “Masterworks of German Film–Oscar Contenders Then and Now.” Spanning multiple decades, this collection reflects the breadth of German cinema.
