Synopsis
Filmmaker Helke Sander is cleaning house and reflects her life. She is one of the central protagonists of the new German film and takes a radical look at society in her numerous films. 1977 she chose for her radically personal film The All-Around Reduced Personality – REDUPERS a single mom as main character.In her 1991 documentary LIBERATOR AND LIEBERTIES, she violates the taboo around discussing post-World War II rapes.
In 1968, she initiated, via her now-legendary “tomato speech,” the New German Women’s Movement.
In her feature films, she often plays the main role. How fortuitous for a documentary film about her eventful life.
