Schtonk!
''Schtonk!'' (subtitled ''Der Film zum Buch vom Führer''; "The film accompanying the ''Führer's'' book") is a 1992 German satirical film which retells the story of the 1983 ''Hitler Diaries'' hoax. It was written and directed by Helmut Dietl. Background In 1983, the German magazine '' Stern'' began to publish the purported Hitler diaries with great fanfare. They were soon proven to be fake using basic analysis techniques. Co-writer and director Helmut Dietl researched the scandal for two years and was quoted as having to leave out several real events from the film because they were too outrageous.

Plot Fritz Knobel (the film's alter-ego of real-life forger Konrad Kujau) supports himself by faking and selling Nazi memorabilia. He sells a portrait of Eva Braun and one v ...

People From Meppen
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of pe ...
