Berlin became her third home, where she received naturopathic treatment in part responsible for the next eight years of her life.
During these years, Audre’s diagnosis of terminal cancer left her American doctors without hope for her survival. The relationship between Audre Lorde and Germany was mutually beneficial. The documentary - directed and produced by Dagmar Schultz, a close friend of Lorde’s in Berlin - chronicles an untold chapter of Lorde’s life: her empowerment of Afro-German women as she challenged white women to acknowledge the significance of their white privilege and to deal with difference in constructive ways. We are extending the screening until 8pm CET.Īudre Lorde - the Berlin Years 1984 to 1992 documents Audre Lorde's influence on the German political and cultural scene during a decade of profound social change, a decade that brought about the fall of the Berlin Wall and the reunification of East and West Germany. This weekend, from 16:28 (CET) Saturday December 5th through 16:28 (CET) Sunday December 6th, we look forward to streaming the documentary Audre Lorde – The Berlin Years, 1984 to 1992 here, on this page.
