Ulrike Marie Meinhof; A Letter to Her Daughter by Timon Koulmasis (1994 | English Subtitles)

This documentary chronicles the life of Ulrike Meinhof, an accomplished, idealistic journalist who turned to terrorism. Filmmaker Timon Koulmasis speaks with Meinhof's friends and colleagues to reveal how her beliefs shifted from political activism to urban terrorism, resulting in her arrest in 1972 and her suicide four years later. As he narrates the program, Koulmasis recalls the years from his childhood when he resided with Meinhof and her daughters. Highlights include the following: Publisher Klaus Wagenbach describes Meinhof's decision to break Andreas Baader out of jail, live underground, and launch an armed struggle with her comrades. Jurgen and Monika Seifert, who attended school with Meinhof, recall the political groups that she joined as a student and the influence of her politically active mother. Meinhof's one-time husband, Klaus Rainer Rohl, reminisces about the couple's first meeting, her employment at his newspaper "Konkret," and their courtship and marriage. And poet Peter Ruhmkorf recalls the political group that Meinhof joined which led to the break-up of her marriage. Then, Timon Koulmasis's father, Peter, describes the odd household where Meinhof's children grew up along with his own kids. Ruth Walz, a friend of Meinhof's, recalls their children's "alternative" nursery school, Meinhof's periods of depression, and her yearning to politically mobilize a women's residence. Also, Walz comments on Baade's influence on Meinhof's life; Freimut Duve recalls Meinhof's actions prior to burning down her ex-husband's home; and Astrid Proll describes her unique place in the Red Army Faction. Additionally, the former journalist's writings are read aloud, including her farewell letter to Rohl and letters that she wrote to her children from jail. In audio and film excerpts, Meinhof speaks about the need to vote for peace; the purpose of the "urban guerilla"; the incompatible elements of her life; and the problems with authority in Germany. As the program concludes, Wagenbach recalls his final meeting with the urban guerilla prior to her arrest and explains that he tried to persuade her to abandon the struggle. The program includes footage of police searching for Red Army members; "Bambule," a film that Meinhof wrote; her appearances on German television; protests in Germany; and home movies of Meinhof and Rohl. A German-language documentary directed by Timon Koulmasis, plus funded and released by ARTE, a French-German cultural channel. ★ The Director's Notes - http://www.timonkoulmasis.eu/en/docum... ★ Related Films - https://www.closeupfilmcentre.com/ver... ★ Further Details - https://www.paleycenter.org/collectio... ★ My source for the film - https://www.ubu.com/film/meinhof_marie.html --- I'm fascinated by the phenomenon of how the children of defeated fascist countries grew up to have the most active rebel urban guerrilla movements. The obvious answer to the question why, is simply anger at their parents generation, but how that played out in each of their lived experiences is interesting to study. Many were ultra-tankies and one even became a neo-nazi later in life. There were also people who considered themselves anarchists who collaborated with them like the 2nd of June Movement. And many who were tankies also become anarchists later in life, following in a trend similar to ex-members of the Weather Underground and the Black Liberation Army:    • Ashanti Alston on the Black Panthers and t...   There's also simply the true crime fascination of red army faction members still on the run 30 years later, having given up the urban guerrilla project, but still robbing banks to survive underground: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jan... --- My links galore: 🍉 Website: https://ActivistJourneys.Wordpress.com 🍐Discord: https://Discord.gg/bYpfzRT https://Discord.gg/fmaCbaW 🍎 Twitter: https://Twitter.com/Theo_Slade 🍓 Facebook: https://Facebook.com/IshkahVidya https://Facebook.com/ActivistJourneys101 🍇 Email: [email protected] 🍈 Tumblr: https://Ishkah.Tumblr.com 🍄 Medium: https://Ishkah.Medium.com 🥕 Etsy: https://Etsy.com/shop/IshkahZines 🍋 Big Cartel: https://Ishkah.BigCartel.com 🍒 Bandcamp: https://IshkahZines.Bandcamp.com 🥝 Audio of my video essays & discussions: https://Stitcher.com/show/Ishkah https://Shows.ACast.com/Ishkah https://SoundCloud.com/User-98573307 https://Open.Spotify.com/show/1ZNEGXz0WEHj... 🍊 Patreon: https://Patreon.com/Ishkah 🥑 PayPal: https://PayPal.me/TheoSlade1 🍍 Reddit: https://Reddit.com/User/WildVirtue https://Reddit.com/r/Ishkah 🍏 TikTok: https://TikTok.com/@Ishkah 🍅 Instagram: https://Instagram.com/Theodopolopolous ---
