Böll-Montagskino & talk with Torsten Körner (director) & Annette Leo (historian) & Solveig Leo (former farmer and mayor of Banzkow)
The documentary tells the story of women who achieved their ambitions in the GDR.
What was the social situation of women in the GDR? The documentary "Die Unbeugamen 2" is dedicated to this question. As the second part of the documentary film series, director Torsten Körner does not focus on the female politicians of the Bonn Republic, but looks at the other side of the Iron Curtain and draws a lively group portrait of East German women from the most diverse areas of society in the GDR. 15 self-confident women tell how patriarchy still ruled even in the land of state-imposed equality, creating a powerful kaleidoscope of gender relations in the workers' and peasants' state. The film thus provides a captivating stage for the impressive life achievements of East German women and their struggle for equal opportunities.
