Fräulein Prolet

Munich, November 8, 1923: State of emergency, inflation, rumors of a coup. The young photographer Fritzi dares to attend an illegal rally. Together with her "Weibergang", the women of the "Bund sozialistischer Frauen" (BSF), she celebrates the fifth anniversary of the revolution on the Theresienwiese. The women denounce the increasing terror of the right-wing militant groups and call for a republic instead of a regulatory cell. Suddenly, Fritzi disappears in the belly of the Bavaria. Has she been kidnapped? Who has an interest in making Fritzi disappear?

In"Fräulen Prolet", Cornelia Naumann has traced the forgotten women of the BSF and brought astonishing things to light.

"If anyone has a deep understanding of the Bavarian Revolution of 1918 and the role of women in it, it's Munich author and dramaturge Cornelia Naumann," wrote journalist Antje Weber in the Süddeutsche Zeitung on March 27, 2024.
