Wieviel Fernsehen für Ihr Kind?

About This Movie

Wieviel Fernsehen für Ihr Kind? is a curious short documentary that explores the impact of television on children. The tone is quite earnest, almost cautionary, as it delves into the content children consume and the potential effects on their development. It has a rather straightforward pacing, focusing more on delivering information than on crafting a narrative arc. The practical effects are minimal, given the nature of the film, but what stands out is the thoughtful commentary woven throughout. It’s a bit didactic, sure, but that lends it a certain charm. It captures a slice of the 80s mentality around education and media, making it a distinctive piece for those interested in the evolution of children's programming and societal views on screen time.
