{"product_id":"9783901644689","title":"Ruth Beckermann [german-Language Edition]","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith her documentaries and essay films since the late 1970s, Viennese filmmaker Ruth Beckermann has created an exciting and widely recognized body of personal\/political cinema. Her work reflects on the relations between history and contemporaneity, on her life as a Jewish woman in postwar Austria and Europe, and on travelling and migration as modes of staying alive - literally as well as artistically. Beckermann's films speak about identity conflicts and the class struggle, about her family history in the Habsburg monarchy (\u003ci\u003eThe Paper Bridge\u003c\/i\u003e) and the war generation as it confronts itself with the crimes of the Werhrmacht (\u003ci\u003eEast of War\u003c\/i\u003e). Most recently, she has turned her sights towards the deep love affair between two poets, Paul Celan und Ingeborg Bachmann, in 1950s Vienna (\u003ci\u003eThe Dreamed Ones\u003c\/i\u003e). This is the first book about Ruth Beckermann's multifaceted oeuvre, with original essays by critics and literary writers, rare illustrations and documents, and an in-depth conversation with the artist. Also included are Beckermann's reflections about her current project,\u003ci\u003e The Case of Kurt Waldheim\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Austrian Film Museum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47053061751024,"sku":"9783901644689","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783901644689_p0.jpg?v=1763703018","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783901644689","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
