Episode Details

Rose, a new film by Markus Schleinzer, tells the story of a battle-scarred soldier from the thirty years war who poses as a man to gain freedom in seventeenth century Europe. Starring Sandra Hüller, the film draws inspiration from real-life stories like Catharina Margaretha Linck, who lived as a man and fought in wars. The movie, which premiered at the Berlinale and hits German theaters on April 30th, is a queer political statement that explores the struggle of women against rigid gender roles for basic rights. Hüllers subtle and powerful performance earned her a Silver Bear for best leading performance, making Rose a complex survivor who challenges societal norms.
