Die Uneinsichtigen – AIDS-Aktivismus in Frankfurt
The Unreasonables – Aids activism in Frankfurt
Lou Deinhart, Evi Rohde & Zoë Struif
The three directors bring together theatre productions from the time of the HIV/AIDS pandemic in the 1980s/90s, news footage and recordings of demonstrations in their research work on AIDS activism. Lou Deinhart, Evi Rohde and Zoë Struif alternate between present-day encounters and media records from that time. By interviewing numerous witnesses, they construct a collage of diverse memories rather than tell a uniform narrative.
Lou Deinhart, Evi Rohde & Zoë Struif
Lou Deinhart, Evi Rohde und Zoë Struif studied theatre, film and media science and aesthetics together in Frankfurt. As part of their Master’s thesis, they spent two years researching AIDS activism in Frankfurt in the 1980s and 1990s and queer memory work. Together with contemporary witnesses, they produced the documentary and participatory film and archive project Die Uneinsichtigen – AIDS-Aktivismus in Frankfurt.
