Was wir filmten: women directors with East German perspectives
film series and talks

The film series »Was wir filmten« (»What we were filming«) shows documentaries, current film productions and artistic short films from an East German perspective by women directors from three generations.
It is based on the first book publication of the Fetival:
Was wir filmten: Filme ostdeutscher Regisseurinnen nach 1990

The series challenges popular narratives about the German reunification and examines them critically. We present films which highlight places, emotions and experiences that have been neglected in the public debate but receive a new awareness now, not least thanks to a young generation.

The stations of our film series with book presentation:

arsenal – Institut für Film und Videokunst e. V., 1.6.2022
