About this film
France, 1936. Gerta, a young German photoreporter, lives in exile with her companion, the Hungarian photographer André Friedmann. Due to widespread xenophobia, no newspaper wants to publish them. When the Spanish civil war breaks out, they are determined to cover the events and thus to fight fascism. Faced with the newspapers' reluctance to send them to Spain, Gerta decides to invent a new identity for them.
Screened as part of the Foreign 3 section.
