IMDB 7.8 | Jun , 2022
“I ask my mother about her past feminist commitment, and why she made a child on her own. She doesn’t answer me. I want to pierce the mystery of my mother. I discover the women’s movement of the 1970s, an activist feminist cinema, and the woman filmmaker that I am changes. I meet and testify to the transmission of a memory of feminist struggles through collective cinematographic practices.” Anna SalzbergYou will never see the shadow

Peter Engelhardt - aptly named “PENG” - has dedicated his entire life to good design: as a renowned designer as well as a collector of everything that makes up everyday life in the 50s, 60s and 70s ... The well-known and the nameless, the precious and the superfluous, the special and the everyday. The Engelhardt collection once comprised over 30,000 objects. But the more Peter collected, the more space he needed - and the less money he had. The last stop for the time being: a dilapidated industrial wasteland near Bingen, rainwater and theft the biggest enemies. The preservation of the collection - or rather the fight against its destruction - in the old mine in Waldalgesheim became the 78-year-old's life's work.Maineland
