Hake heralds the German film of the 1920s and early '30s as the progressive, artistic, Hollywood-threat cinema it certainly was, without ignoring the sociocultural/economic upheaval of the Weimar Republic, which shifted conventional cinematic vocabulary in a manner found in no other Western cinema of the time.
Certainly this aspect was part of the female image even in Hollywood, but in German film of the era, gender representation could be at once liberated and reactionary, evoking the loss of (national) identity, the recasting of social values, and, of course, the threat of economic and political strife.
