How are problems solved in a socialist country? The film centres on an old gasworks in the middle of a workers' district in Berlin, capital of the GDR. For 100 years it was polluting the environment - now it is closed. What has happened to the former workers? Have they been made redundant? Will the site of the old works be taken over by a new one, or will a park be laid out there for the local inhabitants?
Das Gaswerk was directed by Alfons Machalz.
Das Gaswerk runs for 19min, and was released in 1982.
