Doris Dörrie | Leben, schreiben, atmen: Ein Schreibworkshop

In the organizer's words:

Doris Dörrie's writing workshops are legendary - also because they encourage people to start writing in the first place.

"Writing means breathing in the world." For Doris Dörrie, writing is a method of living more intensely. To really see what is before our eyes. Or to rediscover what we have lost or forgotten. It is consolation, self-assurance, accusation, celebration of life. The great author and director invites us to share the happiness of daily writing with her: To simply write away, about one's own life, and in doing so to blow the whistle on shame, fear, self-doubt and spelling rules.

Doris Dörrie studied theater and acting in the USA and then preferred directing. Alongside her film work (including Freibad, 2022), she publishes short stories, novels, a book about writing and children's books. She is head of the Creative Writing department at the Munich Film Academy.
