Released in 1992, Steinzeitbengel is a low-budget video production directed and written by Bleisch.
Bleisch worked as a special education teacher in Schwerin, East Germany (GDR). He gained notoriety for his photography and short films, which often depicted young boys in naturalistic, tribal, or athletic settings. His work was initially sometimes seen through the lens of GDR "FKK" (naturism) culture, but it eventually crossed into illegal territory.
Bleisch was arrested in September 1996 after parents of the boys in his films became suspicious of his activities.
The case remains a significant point of discussion in German legal and media history regarding the boundaries between "artistic photography" and criminal exploitation. Summary of the Case Primary Figures
