UFERFRAUEN - Lesbian Life and Love in the GDR(EARD)

Barbara Wallbraun’s documentary revolves around six lesbians who fought for their self-determination and fulfillment against the norms as dictated by the authoritarian regime in East Germany. Through their extraordinarily captivating stories, we get an empowering glimpse of a glorious struggle from individuals against a state machine which oppressed minorities at every turn, be it in metropolitan Berlin or Dresden, or in the provinces of Western Pomerania and Saxony-Anhalt.
