Aafa-Film

Established in 1920 as Radio-Film the company was controlled by the producer Gabriel Levy and the director Rudolf Dworsky.

The company was one of the leading producers of the Weimar Republic, and survived the transition from silent to sound film in 1929.

[1] During the early 1930s Aafa produced a number of mountain films directed by Arnold Fanck.

In 1934 the company was forcibly disbanded and its assets taken over during the Aryanization programme of the Nazi Party which confiscated businesses from Jewish ownership.

This was also part of a wider move which led to production being concentrated in the hands of four major studios Bavaria, Tobis, Terra and UFA.
