Wolfgang Neff

Wolfgang Neff (8 September 1875 – 10 June 1939) was an Austrian film director. He directed 50 films between 1920 and 1930. He was born in Prague, Bohemia, Austria-Hungary (now Czech Republic).

In January 1922, he founded Work-Film GmbH (1922–1925), and in October 1923, he became the sole owner of India-Film GmbH (1923–1929). His mountain film, The Death Road on the Bernina, was the last German silent film released in 1931. As the popularity of silent film declined from the advent of sound cinema, he no longer received directing opportunities.
