Gerhard Lamprecht’s film is the first adaptation of Thomas Mann’s Nobel Prize-winning literary classic about the rise and fall of the merchant family from Lübeck. In contrast to the original novel published in 1901, the film is not set in the 19th century but in the 1920s. With impressive visuals and lavish sets, the film depicts the change of generations, personal destinies and the decline of traditional values. Lamprecht’s BUDDENBROOKS film is regarded as an ambitious project of Weimar-era cinema which helped him achieve his breakthrough as a director.
