Therefore, film is a useful tool to help people who learn foreign languages achieve a high level of competences, which are essential to successful communication. A film canon would be here of great assistance both to teachers as well as learners. The aim of this paper is to discuss the existing German film canon and also to present the results of a research project conducted at the Adam-Mickiewicz-University (Poznań, Poland) with German Philology students that justify the need to create a film canon for the purpose of teaching and learning of German as a foreign language.deuinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFilm, Landeskunde, interkulturelle Kompetenz, Medienkompetent, FilmkanonArtykuł
