The film deals primarily with the personal relationship between two sisters, and clearly reflects the relationship between the German siblings Gudrun and Christiane Ensslin \u2013 the latter of whom played an active role in the film\u2019s development. The sisters both led politically engaged lives: on the one hand, Christiane, legally as a journalist; the other, Gudrun, radically as a terrorist for the German RAF (Red Army Fraction), who abandoned partner and child to go underground and was eventually incarcerated.<\/p>\n<p>In 2005, Christiane and her brother Gottfried Ensslin published the letters that Gudrun wrote from solitary confinement in the early years of her imprisonment, 1972-73. One reason for the intensive written exchange was the strict limitation on visitation and correspondence permissions to include only immediate family members. Missing are Christiane Ensslin\u2019s letters; the dialogue allows itself to be reconstructed only from Gudrun\u2019s answers. Her private letters \u2013 as Gudrun Ensslin was well aware \u2013 were read by the state authorities and censored. In light of this background, the \u201cprivate\u201d aspect of these testaments is relative.<\/p>\n<p>Passages from Gudrun\u2019s letters to Christiane penetrate the hermetic exhibition space in deep red handwriting. On top of these personal words, in a lighter red, are excerpts from literary as well as philosophical and political texts that Gudrun Ensslin asked her sister to bring to her in prison. These include Friedrich Engels\u2019 \u201cThe Origin of the Family,\u201d \u201cA Hunger Artist\u201d by Franz Kafka, poems by Ezra Pound, dramas by Jean Genet und \u201cTractatus Logico-Philosophicus\u201d by Ludwig Wittgenstein. The literary influences on Gudrun Ensslin are evident beyond her \u201cauthentic\u201d voice \u2013 just as the red star points to the history of the Russian Red Guard, before it was adapted as the symbol of the German RAF.<\/p>\n<p>BW[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;50px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column
