In 1962 the Deutsche Kinemathek was founded to preserve the audiovisual heritage. Since 2000 it has been presenting its treasures at the museum on Potsdamer Platz. The exhibition catalog features selected items of German film and television history, among them the futuristic drafts for Fritz Lang's METROPOLIS, Marlene Dietrich's costumes, documents for Michael Haneke's THE WHITE RIBBON and material from Loriot's oeuvre.
