"Люди в воскресенье" - немой полудокументальный-полуигровой фильм, одна из первых картин, в которой сыграли непрофессионалы (все пятеро молодых людей, участвовавшие в съемках, так и не стали актерами). Имена героев фильма повторяли имена игравших их людей.
Сюжет фильма предельно прост. В воскресенье Берлин пустеет: уставшие за рабочую неделю люди уезжают из города, чтобы отдохнуть. Они едут на озеро, играют в футбол, гуляют. В центре внимания – две девушки и двое мужчин, которые вместе проводят день на озере.
