EIGHTHOURS DON‘T MAKE ADAY PRESSBOOK 2 Gottfried John plays the factory worker Jochen. INTRODUctiON In the five-part TV series produced by Westdeutscher Rundfunk (WDR) writer-director Rainer Werner Fassbinder explores working life of the time and asks how many hours of the day after working eight are left for social, family and political problems . EIGHT HOURS DON‘T MAKE A DAY is a series about a working-class family combining socio-political and economic analysis with everyday stories . As an exciting and enter- taining television series it addresses such issues as workers‘ participation and solida- rity in the workplace, high rents and anti-authoritarian upbringing . Fassbinder creates an alternative to televsion‘s illusions of a perfect world that speaks directly to a class usually unrepresentative . Actors playing main roles in the series include Gottfried John, Hanna Schygulla, Luise Ullrich, Werner Finck, Irm Hermann, Wolfgang Schenck, and Hans Hirschmüller . The series has now been meticulously restored by the Rainer Werner Fassbinder Founda- tion (RWFF), a project made possible by the support of the Museum of Modern Art, Film und Medienstiftung NRW, FFA, R .W .F Werkschau, ARRI and Verlag der Autoren . On 11 and 12 February the restored version will be premiered at the 67th Berlin International Film Festival in the Volksbühne on Rosa-Luxemburg- Platz .
