English:
After the World War I and until the arising of the Nazism at the beginning of the 1930s, Germany was the birthplace of a new movie style based in the stylistic features of the expressionist movement such as the use of the chiaroscuro, oneiric atmospheres and exaggerated angles and compositions. The exact birth date of this movement must be placed at the end of 1917, when the Universum Film AG (UFA) was founded by the German government and military.
Portuguese:
O Expressionismo alemão, estilo cinematográfico cujo auge se deu nos anos 1920, caracterizou-se pela distorção de cenários e personagens, através da maquiagem, dos recursos de fotografia e de outros mecanismos, com o objetivo de expressar a maneira como os realizadores viam o mundo.
