Aelrun Goette über „Feldtagebuch“: „Sie haben mich einfach unterschätzt.“ (Meisterklasse)

In her masterclass at the House of Documentary Film, filmmaker Aelrun Goette discusses "Field Diary – Alone Among Men" (2002). The documentary film covers the basic training of four of the first female recruits in the German Armed Forces. The award-winning director explains to curator Astrid Beyer why the film led to two disciplinary proceedings after its premiere and how a traditional gender stereotype ultimately worked in Goette's favor during filming ("They simply underestimated me."). The masterclass took place on September 25, 2020, at the House of Documentary Film in Stuttgart.
