Synopsis
UFERFRAUEN – Lesbian life and love in the GDR is a documentary which tells the life stories of six lesbian women in the GDR – in the big city as well as in rural areas – and how they lived and loved in same-sex relationships. These six very different biographies are representative of untold lesbian history, ranging from intimate love stories to accounts of state repression. Shaped by socialism, how did these mothers, workers and warriors, often "invisible" lesbians, live? UFERFRAUEN illustrates a not yet publicly discussed topic, thus exploring an intriguing aspect of German history.
