Saralisa Volm

In the organizer's words:

An inventory of the female body

How much hyaluronic acid fits into the face of an intelligent woman? How much Botox can I expect from my political stance? How much sagging breast can I bear? Saralisa Volm is right in the middle of the beauty craze. It's time for physical self-empowerment, better sex, real anger, relaxed ageing and to finally say no.
The female body is being discussed in public, but where is female self-determination?

SARALISA VOLM is an actress, art historian and filmmaker.
In 2017, the film satire "Fikkefuchs", which she produced, caused a sensation. In 2022, she appeared as Germaine Greer in the award-winning feature film "Als Susan Sontag im Publikum saß" (directed by RP Kahl). Her feature film debut as a director, "Silent stands the forest", premiered at the Berlinale 2022.

Bodies are everywhere. Evaluation is everywhere. No escape.
What does that do to us? Saralisa Volm is torn between a general overhaul of her body and a big "fuck you". Can't you just find yourself out of shape and still enjoy life? The 38-year-old has dealt intensively with the topic of the body, both professionally and privately. Here she tells the story of her ambivalent relationship with her own body. It is the starting point for the feminist debate on the subject. Who is to blame for our beauty dilemma? And above all: what can we women do to counter it?
