Battlefield gender

A film by Caterina Woj | 2019 | arte | MDR

Exploring selected works of art and examples from current day art productions as well as the highly topical debate about #metoo and the art exhibition „Violence and Gender. Male War – Female Peace“ the film explores the question how violence and gender are linked and if the conventional equation is correct: Man = violent and militant and woman = tender and peaceful. A look into art history discovers surprising findings and shows how little viable these clichés are.
