Audre Lorde: The Berlin Years CTBA
2012 marked the 20th anniversary of Audre Lorde’s passing, the acclaimed Black lesbian feminist poet and activist. This documentary explores a little-known chapter of the writer’s prolific life, a period in which she helped ignite the Afro-German Movement and made lasting contributions to the German political and cultural scene before and after the fall of the Berlin Wall. With testimony from Lorde’s colleagues, students and friends, this film documents Lorde’s lasting legacy in Germany.
Presented in association with LaDIYfest Sheffield and University of Sheffield’s Centre for Gender Research
