Der Schlaf der Vernunft

BR Deutschland 1983/1984 Spielfilm

Summary

In her feature, director Ula Stöckl illustrates gender psychology in a revolutionary manner: Protagonist Dea, inspired by the character Medea known from Greek mythology, literally fights against the rest of the world – against a pharma company producing pills, against her daughters, her mother and finally her husband, who betrays and abandons her. Based on female experiences and modes of suppression, Stöckl visualizes Dea's battle in which the line between dream and reality becomes blurred.
