Fräulein Gold, die rote Insel
Description:
Berlin, 1926: Hulda Gold was forced to give up her position as a midwife at the women's clinic and now lives in a working-class district, far removed from her old neighborhood. Here, on the so-called "Red Island," she is able to work alongside Grete Fischer in her medical practice. Together, the two women tend to people who struggle daily against poverty and hardship--all while political tensions escalate across Berlin. Conflicts repeatedly erupt between Communists, National Socialist sympathizers, and the "Ringvereine" criminal gangs. The district on the Red Island, too, is marked by this unrest. Grete, who belongs to a Communist group, appears to take a rather lax attitude toward the law. When the simmering atmosphere finally explodes into violence, Hulda finds herself caught in the crossfire--and facing the greatest trial of her life.
