518    Originally produced by DEFA Film Library in 1958. 
520    A socialist story of "atoms for peace" and compulsory 
       labor in an East German uranium mine under Soviet control.
       Banned at Soviet insistence, it impresses even today with 
       its political complexity, variety of characters and 
       realistic portrayal of daily work in a forbidden zone of 
       the industrial landscape. Sun seekers was banned in 1958 
       at the urging of the USSR, in part because it is about 
       Soviet-German relations and the mining of uranium to 
       support the nuclear arms race in East Germany's Wismut 
       region. Encouraged by the "thaw" promised by the 20th 
       Congress of the Soviet Communist Party, in this film 
       Konrad Wolf presents a highly dramatic and differentiated 
       view of the Nazi past, Stalinist political practices and 
       the energetic chaos of the early postwar period. The 
       film's style combines Wolf's Russian sensibilities with 
       echoes of Italian neo-realism and Pabst's Kameradschaft 
       (1931). Releasing this banned film became one of Wolf's 
       first priorities when a new regime took over in the GDR in
       1972. In 1989, the film was revived again along with other
       banned films, as part of DEFA's best 'if thwarted' 
       tradition.
