Even twenty years after her death, the influence of the writer and activist Audre Lorde on the Afro-American, feminist and queer movements is extremely lively. A little heeded chapter are her Berlin years from 1984 to 1992, in which Lorde helped Afro-Germans to become more self-confident and commented on the social changes in the city that were marked by the fall of the Berlin Wall and reunification. White Germans challenged them to recognize their privileges and to deal with differences constructively.
Personal video and audio recordings by Dagmar Schultz allow a special look into the life of private Audre Lorde, but also let fellow students, students and friends have their say. The extraordinary portrait was premiered in the Panorama of the Berlinale 2012.
