Herbert Achternbusch

Herbert Achternbusch (born November 23 1938) is a German writer, painter and filmmaker. His anarchist surrealistic films are not known to a wide audience in Germany, although one of them, Das Gespenst (The Ghost), caused a scandal in 1983 because of its alleged blasphemous content.^[1] Werner Herzog, a director of the New German Cinema, based his film Heart of Glass on a story by Achternbusch.
