Franz Seitz Sr. (14 April 1887 – 7 March 1952) was a German film director and screenwriter.[1] He directed 59 films between 1920 and 1951. His son Franz Seitz Jr. was a film producer.
In 1933, he directed S.A.-Mann Brand, one of the first propaganda films made after the instauration of the Nazi regime in Germany. While expounding the purported virtues of joining the ranks of the Nazi Party, the film is notable for the absence of any anti-Semitic themes.[2][3]
