The GDR State Film Documentation
The State Film Documentation (SFD), which operated from 1970 to 1986 at Rosenthaler Platz in Berlin, was an “exotic” organization in the GDR film industry: SFD productions were handed over to the GDR State Film Archive for storage as soon as they were completed. There, in the stacks, they were to survive for 30, 50 or even 100 years in order to serve as visual and source material for later filmmakers or academics.
