Special Screenings
The story of best-selling author, Sibylle Berg’s life as a GDR refugee sounds almost as though she made it up. Sibylle Berg once went looking for happiness. Today she is looking for a house. This portrait of a magnificently ironic dramatist teaches us about the male form of ‘writer’, why they always support their heads with their hands in photographs, what useful things there are to be learned in the GDR, how fungi steer the minds of politicians – and that behind every shy female writer hides a shy person.
