Ernst Thälmann - Son of his Class is a 1954 East-German movie directed by Kurt Maetzig and Johannes Arpe. In November 1918, a leaflet reaches the German soldiers on the Western Front urging them to do the same as the Russian peasants and workers and actively fight against their oppression. Tählmann, who had long since realized the futility of the war and was serving his time as an involuntary soldier, began to fight alongside his comrades immediately after his return home. However, the working class's attempt to revolt is prevented by right-wing social democrats, and the working class is threatened with depolarization.


The following weapons were used in the film Ernst Thälmann - Son of his Class:
