Although their names were condemned to a footnote, the Bauhaus also trained women. In the hundredth anniversary of its foundation, this historical drama roams the Staatliche Bauhaus classrooms from the point of view of one of its artists, Lotte Brendel, character inspired by the great Alma Siedhoff-Buscher.
On April 1, the hundredth anniversary of the foundation, in Weimar (Germany), of the Bauhaus school will be celebrated. An institution created and articulated to educate, whose main objective was to respond to social needs through creative work. Its influence in the world of architecture, art and design was so radical and fundamental that the history of the 20th century could not be understood without his contributions.
Filmin premieres "Bauhaus" in Spain, the film with which German public television has commemorated the centennial, premiered in Germany just a few weeks ago.
As producers Benjamin Benedict and Nico Hofmann explain, "Lotte am Bauhaus" focuses on the emancipation efforts of a new generation of women and counts the 14 years of the Bauhaus in 105 minutes through the eyes of the young student.
“Bauhaus” is directed by Gregor Schnitzler and has the support of the current director of the Bauhaus Archive, Annemarie Jaeggi: "The film gives an idea of the creativity, curiosity and passion that were experienced in that experimentation center that was the Bauhaus", she states.
