Synopsis
There are some silent film directors who use the film medium primarily as an expression of their social and political beliefs. Such is the case for Herr Armand Guerra, a Spanish director who did most of his work in France and Germany. He was a political activist from his youth and had a particular interest in anarchist groups. Such a background of course would make him an undesirable at the Schloss (and elsewhere). For Herr Guerra the end justified the means and artistic concerns were secondary at best. His film "La Commune" ( The Commune ) (1914) is a good example of Herr Guerra's peculiarities. It was produced by "Cinéma Du Peuple" ( People's Cinema ), a film cooperative supported by workers, and depicts the beginnings of the Commune of Paris, that working class uprising that briefly ruled and caused a mess during two months in the city of Paris in the year of 1871. -.
