In the organizer's words:
In her graphic novel "Silence", Birgit Weyhe recalls two women and their story of resistance.
Ellen Marx, a 17-year-old German Jew, was forced to flee to Argentina under the Nazis in the spring of 1939. Her family did not survive the Holocaust. During the Argentinean military dictatorship almost 40 years later, her daughter Nora is kidnapped - another dictatorship destroys her family's life. Elisabeth Käsemann belongs to the German post-war generation that becomes politicized within the student movement. In 1969, she traveled to Buenos Aires, studied there and became socially active. She was arrested in 1977, deported to the El Vesubio torture camp and murdered. The Federal Foreign Office remains silent on the matter, as economic interests and the upcoming soccer World Cup in Argentina appear to be more important. "Silence" documents these stories and the resistance of the families, for example as mothers of the Plaza del Mayo.
