After our most recent collaboration on the Translations Film Festival, Goethe Pop Up Seattle is thrilled to partner once more with
Three Dollar Bill Cinema to help bring two German feature films to the
2021 Seattle Queer Film Festival. Films at this year’s festival are available both at in-person screenings and virtually.
About the Film:
Bliss (Glück)
dir. Henrika Kull; 2021; Deutschland; 85 Min.
Love comes when you least expect it. When self-assured, free-spirited Maria (Adam Hoya, a real-life performance artist and sex worker, and subject of the documentary SEARCHING EVA) arrives in a Berlin brothel, she catches the attention of Sascha (Katharina Behrens), a veteran prostitute beloved by colleagues and clients alike. Their attraction to each other draws them together fast and furiously, but their life circumstances soon get in the way: Sascha is supporting her 10-year-old son, who lives with his father, and Maria is deceiving her family about her new life. Filmed in a working brothel, BLISS showcases female empowerment and self-determination in the sex industry.
