East German word of the day: Aschenbrödel
Original: Ostwort des Tages: Aschenbrödel "Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel", Märchenfilm von 1973, gedreht von DEFA und dem Prage
The word 'Aschenbrödel' — the East German term for Cinderella — is being highlighted as 'East word of the day'. It points to the 1973 fairy-tale film 'Three Wishes for Cinderella', made by East German studio DEFA with Prague's Barrandov studio, which has been a fixture of Christmas television programming for decades. People are being asked whether the film was part of their holiday viewing too.
Why now: The classic DEFA fairy-tale film is a nostalgic Christmas tradition in eastern Germany, so the term resurfaces every holiday season.
