	'''''Ernst Thälmann - Leader of his Class''''' is a 1955 East-German movie directed by Kurt Maetzig. The second part covers the period from 1930 until Thälmann's assassination in 1944. It shows Thälmann's struggle for the united front of the German workers against the National Socialists, his arrest after Hitler's seizure of power, and the eleven years of imprisonment in which he remains steadfast until his death. An attempt by the comrades to liberate him fails and Thälmann rejects a corrupting offer of freedom by Göring. And he has to witness how his brave fellow fighter Änne Jansen is killed in a bomb attack in the women's prison across the street. Änne's husband Fiete Jansen, who was already at Thälmann's side as a friend and fighter in the first part, becomes the second supporting figure of the film. As commander of the Thälmann Battalion, he fights for the people's cause in Spain and later in the ranks of the Red Army for a quick end to the fascist war.
