Production

The film was one of the so-called "mission films", commissioned in great number by the East German government during the late 1950s and the early 1960s, that were intended to promote distinct political aims.[2] Dr. Ahrendt's Decision was meant to set an ideal model for behavior and attitude for the industrial workers.[3]

Reception

Heinz Kersten wrote that the film resembled Socialist Realist pictures, and was intended to promote the economical aspirations of East Germany, by motivating the populace to work harder.[4]

Marianne Lange noted that Dr. Ahrendt's Decision portrayed the transformation of simple workers to ambitious, skilled labor.[5] The West German film service regarded it as "boring propaganda".[6]
