Overgames
by Lutz Dammbeck, colour and b/w, 163 min., 2015
Nearly universally, game shows are among the most popular programmes on television, and their success does not necessarily depend on the production costs. Coming across a lead almost by chance, filmmaker Lutz Dammbeck searches out the roots and mechanisms of the genre. He was especially interested in the theory that the origins of the TV game show lie in American psychiatry and its influence on re-education programmes developed by Americans after the Second World War in the belief that Germany had gone insane.
