Die Deutsche Wochenschau

Die Deutsche Wochenschau (German for 'The German Weekly Review', lit. 'The German Weekly Look' or 'The German Weekly Show') is the title of the unified newsreel series released in the cinemas of Nazi Germany from June 1940 until the end of World War II, with the final edition issued on 22 March 1945. The co-ordinated newsreel production was set up as a vital instrument for the mass distribution of Nazi propaganda at war. Today the preserved Wochenschau short films make up a significant part of the audiovisual records of the Nazi era.
