'''''Putting Things Straight''''' is a 1979 film directed and written by [[Georg Brintrup]]. It was the director's first TV-release, and was shot on [[16 mm film]]. The filmscript is based on a written polemic ("Ich räume auf - Meine Anklage gegen meine Verleger")<ref>Erstausgabe Lago - Verlag, Zürich 1925</ref> of Jewish German poet [[Else Lasker-Schüler]], main female representative of [[German Expressionism]].


'''Georg Brintrup''' (born October 25, 1950) is a German [[film director]], known for his film essays on poetry and music.
==Premise==

The film describes a dispute between poetess [[Else Lasker-Schüler]] and her publishers. The film takes place in [[Berlin]] before, during and after [[World War I]] and deals with an author's rights, according to [[Karl Marx]]: "A writer is judged as productive, not on the amount of ideas he produces, but on the amount of money his publisher is able to profit from his works." <ref>Karl Marx: Theorien über den Mehrwert, Hrsg. Karl Kautsky, 1. Bd. Die Anfänge der Theorie vom Mehrwert bis Adam Smith. </ref>

==Life and career==
Brintrup began making films — from the very beginning, they were mostly non-narrative essays on music and poetry — in 1968. He studied Journalism, History of Art and the Romance Languages at the University of Münster (Germany). From 1972, he studied at a film school in Rome (Italy). Part of his thesis entitled "Literature in Films" (1975) is his short film "My miracles", seven poems by [[Else Lasker-Schüler]], in German language. He went on to make films as an independent filmmaker. His first bigger film was “Spielregel für einen Wiedertäuferfilm” (1976) - (Rules For a Film about Anabaptists), which was shown at the 1977 [[International Film Festival Rotterdam]] and [[Berlin International Film Festival]] (Internationales Forum des Jungen Films) . From 1979 on, he started directing films for German, Italian and Brazilian television. He is also author of 30 radio plays.
