Why was Germany hit the hardest during the depression?

The Great Depression was particularly severe in Germany, which had enjoyed five years of artificial prosperity, propped up by American loans and goodwill. Unemployment hit millions of Germans, as companies shut down or downsized.

In 1929 as the Wall Street crash led to a worldwide depression. Germany suffered more than any other nation as a result of the recall of US loans which caused its economy to collapse.

What Germany had to agree to by signing the Treaty of Versailles?

The German government had agreed to sign the Treaty of Versailles in June 1919 to make peace. Enemies of the government used the Treaty to claim that it had stabbed Germany in the back by ending the war.

Reactions to the Treaty in Germany were very negative. There were also the humiliating terms, which made Germany accepted blame for the war, limit their armed forces and pay reparations.

How was NZ affected by the depression?

For New Zealand, as for most of the world outside Russia, the great depression of the early 1930s was the most shattering economic experience ever recorded. Exports fell by 45  per cent in two years, national income 40 per cent in three.

We made a film using film techniques, it's based on the merchant of Venice.  Our short film is about  2 friends finding treasure and enemy following at the end of the movie, 1 of the 2 friends were betraying about the treasure, and the enemy and the other friend will be a friend because his other friend betrayed him for just the treasure.

5. What were some challenges you encountered while doing this project? What learnings did you gain from this challenge?  I found challenges that you really have to try your best when doing filming because if you ruin the film and we have to film again and that's not good for your team. I learn by working with groups in film and how we work together as a team. 

6. What would you do differently next time if you were to do this project again? Maybe next time we will include film shots because we were too busy filming and forgot to put the list of film shots we need in the movie.
