German Animated Propaganda Short about Energy Saving- ca. 1944

"Kohlenklau" (literally: Coal Thief) was the name of a propaganda campaign that started on December 7th, 1942, under the slogan "Fight the coal thief!" The campaign was intended to motivate people to save energy, mainly electrictiy and coal. The main figure of the campaign was a carricature of a coal thief, called "Kohlenklau", who was portrayed as an egoistic coal thief who only cares about himself. The campaign ran all the way untill the end of the war, spawning comics, two board games, many newspaper and magazine articles and several propaganda short movies like this one from 1944. The campaign was generally more aimed towards younger people, as it was hoped that young boys and girls who were already growing up with Nazi propaganda would be more susceptible for a campaign like this. - Subtitles made by me.
