Production

The DEFA Commission reviewed 58 scripts that were proposed for filming in the years 1959/60. Four of those were dubbed as "aesthetic films", and were all centered on portraying Christians as backward and reactionary. Out of the four, State Secretary of Cinema Erich Wendt authorized one script, that became the basis to Always on Duty. Although the picture was produced, the improvement in church and state relations in East Germany during 1960 prompted several changes in the plot, and the picture's antagonists were not presented as devout Catholics.[2]

Reception

Miera and Antonin Liehm cited Zu Jeder Stunde as one of DEFA's "contemporary socialist films."[3] The Der Monat journal's critic wrote that while viewing the film, "the public could be impressed by the alertness of the Border Troops."[4] The German Film Lexicon regarded it as "unassuming, propagandistic, not persuading and artistically weak, as well as full of stereotypes."[5]
