Georg Elser
Alone against Hitler
Who is this boy who almost killed Hitler later in his life? But for a gap of only a few minutes he would have decisively changed world history. Perhaps this boy would be hailed as a hero of German history today if his attack on Hitler had proceeded as he had planned? Who is this Georg Elser, who comes from a rather modest background and grew up in a small Swabian village far away from the big cities? And how did it happen, anyway, that he set out alone against Hitler? And why is it that this Georg Elser, who nearly changed the course of the world, is still so little known in Germany?

Computer Games
This film covers the topic of computer games in a variety of ways and from many different angles. Apart from the fascina- tion of computer games for users, the historical development as well as the production of computer games are described. The established genres are introduced, the guidelines of the German BPjM are explained. In light of recent public discussions, a neutral overview of the pros and cons of playing computer games is given, and different kinds of player behaviour are outlined. In this film, the pupils will recognise many aspects of their favourite pastime that encourage an independent, constructive use of this medium and reinforce their media competency. The film and teaching material are very closely related to the real-life situation.
