Hansel and Gretel (German: Hänsel und Gretel) is a 1954 West German family film directed by Fritz Genschow.[1] It is based on the fairy tale Hansel and Gretel by the Brothers Grimm. It should not be confused either with another German film Hansel and Gretel or an American film Hansel and Gretel, both of which were released the same year.
