Remembrance and memory are enjoying a boom in Humanities research. In her study, Susanne Haake examines forms of remembering with respect to cinema-going in the Saarland, a German federal state, between the 1930s and 1950s. Closing a scholarly gap, her analysis of local cineastic history examines the viewing public and their film experiences. What cinema reminiscences are evoked from one's youth and how are they conveyed from a narratological angle in the context of the living world and historic events? To answer these questions, Susanne Haake analyzes interviews using an interdisciplinary analytical instrument she herself developed.
