The Berlin Act is a law that was created in 1908 to protect the rights of creators of artistic works. It says that people who create things like books, music, and movies don't have to do anything special to get copyright protection. The law recommends that creators should have protection for their whole life plus 50 years, and it also includes movies in copyright protection for the first time.
