Episodes

View All Seasons
Episode 1 • Apr 09, 1987
Das nächste Jahrhundert wird uns gehören (1830-1848)
The episode presents the lives of four protagonists of the women's movement before March: Kathinke Zitz, Mathilde Franziska Anneke, Louise Aston and Louise Otto-Peters. Verbatim quotes from the featured women were presented in a collage. A continuous chronological plot was omitted. Instead, the red thread character Lore Stefanek looked for facts about the four women and about the time, focusing on the everyday experiences of the time.
Episode 5 • May 07, 1987
Die eigensinnigen Damen (1895-1908)
About the heterogeneous morality movement, which in part opposed the prevailing double standards, in part set up homes for "fallen girls" and demanded punishment for prostitutes and clients. Excerpts from silent films, with Asta Nielsen, showed the effects of the moral concepts of the time. The protagonists shown are Minna Cauer, Lida Gustava Heymann and Helene Stöcker.
Episode 8 • May 28, 1987
Grundsätzlich gleichberechtigt (1918-1924)
After the war, women's suffrage was introduced. But after the first Reichstag election, the proportion of women in parliament was no more than 10%. Based on the discussion of the Weimar Constitution on the civic rights and duties of men and women, the filmmakers used many quotations to show the different points of view within the women's movement and among parliamentarians. As with the following film, the search for the past was itself the theme of the film. Important participants were Anita Augspurg, Lida Gustava Heymann, Helene Stöcker, Gertrud Baer, Marie Juchacz, Gertrud Bäumer, Clara Zetkin, and Käthe Kollwitz.
Episode 9 • Jun 04, 1987
Hilft uns denn niemand? (1924-1933)
About the downside of the so-called "Roaring Twenties". More than 800,000 women have illegal abortions each year, with thousands dying. Penitentiary for abortion, punishable by up to three years in prison under S. 218 German criminal code. A mass campaign against Section 218 arose. As with the previous part, the search for the past was itself the theme of the episode.
Episode 10 • Jun 11, 1987
Ende vom Anfang (1933-1948)
The woman under National Socialism was supposed to find her destiny in marriage and as a mother and to limit herself to "essential" activities. The film used material from newsreels and cultural films that were intended to convey this image of women - especially during the Second World War, so that the "home front" would not falter.
Episode 12 • Jun 25, 1987
Außer Männern haben wir nichts zu verlier'n (-1968)
About the new women's movement. Feminism was virtually non-existent from 1945 to 1966. An important exception is a phrase in the human-rights section of the new German constitution, which states: "Men and women have equal rights".
