RESISTERS 1

Jill Daniels

About the film

Located in Berlin and framed by a personal voiced address to the revolutionary Marxist Rosa Luxemburg, the film brings the largely silenced stories of ordinary individuals who resisted fascism during the Third Reich, often at the cost of their own lives, into the present. In contrast to large state memorials to the victims of the Holocaust many of the individual resisters to the Nazis are memorialised by Stolpersteine, small stumbling blocks in the pavements outside the buildings where they lived. Their stories are put in conversation with contemporary resistance against the right-wing nationalist party AfD (Alternative für Deutschland) through the activities of the Berlin branch of the group Omas Gegen Rechts (Grandmothers Against the Right).
