Banned East German Comedy Premieres 40 Years Late

Banned East German Comedy Premieres 40 Years Late With so many secret police officers and informants, East Germany wasn't exactly a hub of serious crime. A film long-banned by the communist government to be premiered this week is believed to be the last film made by the legendary DEFA studios that still hasn't had a public screening.
