WENN DU ANGST HAST NIMMST DU DEIN HERZ IN DEN MUND UND LÄCHELST
Termine
Anna ist neu in der Klasse in der Nobelschule im ersten Wiener Gemeindebezirk. Sie kommt aus
Floridsdorf, die Schüler*innen in der Klasse aus anderen Einkommensschichten. Annas Mama Isolde ist gehörlos. Und Annas Ralph-Lauren-Pulli
ist fake. Echt ist dafür ihre neue Freundin Mara und ganz real ist auch der gemeinsame Erkenntnisgewinn: Für Scham gibt’s
im Leben keinen Platz.
Marie Luise Lehner’s debut film, multiple award-winner at the Berlinale and the Diagonale, tells the story of Anna and her deaf mother Isolde, and explores what it means to transform shame about one’s background into pride — a tale of affection, care, and solidarity.

Princess
is my gender
Don’t call me she or her
The pronoun I prefer
Is Her Majesty
(Tami T, „Princess”)
Twelve-year-old Anna is moving from middle school to high school. Things are different here: the children at the new school come from a completely different social background. Anna starts to feel ashamed of her origins and of her deaf mother. During a school ski trip, Anna pretends to be sick — the money saved for the ski course has instead been spent on a sofa bed, which will give her mother the chance to pursue a romantic relationship, and provide Anna herself with a little more privacy. Mara, a classmate, soon becomes an ally when it turns out that she, too, is keeping a secret.
Cast: Siena Popović, Mariya Menner, Jessica Paar, Daniel Sea
