Directed by: Georg Stefan Troller, Harald Kubens
Written by: Rolf Eschenbach, Harald Kubens, Norbert Mai, Georg Stefan Troller
Georg Stefan Troller's Pariser Journal, broadcast by WDR from 1962, was a series of news reports about Paris that blended street scenes, portraits, and cultural life. The series ran until 1971 and left its mark on the image of Paris in the German media. Troller filmed Paris as a city of contrasts: luxury and boulevards, but also markets, working-class neighborhoods, the night, and its fringes. The episodes featured both iconic locations and personalities such as Jean-Paul Belmondo, Françoise Hardy, Michel Simon, Catherine Deneuve, and Jacques Prévert. The program is known for its subjective and literary style of reportage, offering a very personal perspective on Parisians, both famous and anonymous. It didn't simply inform; it sought to convey the atmosphere, the tensions, and the myths of the city of Paris.
