DIE RÄUBERINNEN, D: Isa Schieche | 16 min | 2023
Die Räuberinnen is a humorous analysis of behaviour and characteristics ascribed to men and women, which also deals with friendship, solidarity and resistance. Three trans women plan a robbery, disguise themselves as men and reach their limits in their attempt to perform masculine gestures. The film questions binary role models and shows moments of closeness, community and vulnerability in the midst of radicalism and activism. (Cordula Thym)

SO PRETTY, D: Jessica Dun Rovinelli | 83 min | 2019
So Pretty is tender, strong, a hint. A film like a band-aid for private, queer and political wounds. Jessica Dunn Rovinelli's second feature film leads us gently but resolutely into the world of the New York queer scene. With flowing grace, a world unfolds in which love takes precedence over pain, resistance over violence, community over loneliness, but illusion never takes precedence over reality.
Sometimes the protagonists are on their own and sometimes they take the audience directly with them on the manifestation of their feelings, making them co-viewers, co-knowers and co-sympathisers of their queer-feminist struggle. (Tetyana Gryniva)
