  • Director: Rosa von Praunheim

CGiii Comment

Rosa recently received the Teddy Award for his life's work...well-deserved.

Silence = Death, with its  meagre financial resource, manages to achieve more than most...the madness of it all, the anger...through art, by artists directly affected by AIDS. Now, tragically, all gone.

This is not easy to watch - especially the opening performance...desperate times, desperate measures.

Let us not forget.
