After the First World War, the effects of financial crisis could be felt in all corners of the newly formed Weimar Republic. This book turns to the many underexamined depictions of finance capital that appear in the films of 1920s Germany.
Owen Lyons is an Assistant Professor at the School of Image Arts at Toronto Metropolitan University and holds a PhD in Cultural Mediations from Carleton University. His research addresses Weimar Cinema as well as the visual culture of twenty-first century financial markets.
