Manfred Durniok (1934-2003), German film director and producer, shot his first short documentary films in the 1950s and 1960s. At the end of the 50s he got to know Oskar Sala (1910-2002) and took advantage of the composers electro-acoustic and musical skills in many of his subsequent black and white motion pictures.

Manfred Durniok (1934-2003), German film director and producer, shot his first short documentary films in the 1950s and 1960s. At the end of the 50s he got to know Oskar Sala (1910-2002) and took advantage of the composers electro-acoustic and musical skills in many of his subsequent black and white motion pictures.
