Im Ernstfall nicht verfugbar (Not Available in Case of Emergency)

A letter to the husband serving at the front in 1941. A historical document about the war and women’s roles: they were not actively involved nor did they prevent it.
The traditional female role:helper/saviour/keeper/offerer of comfort…
In addition a document about peace in wartime. Women’s life when the men are absent. Help or maybe also the start of independence and resistance?
The historical setting: a small plot of land, the back garden. The camera is permitted three movements: above ground – assurance – up and away.
Below ground – an archaeological search for the roots, important the reasons for the buried, attempted starts.
All over the world women fought to prevent initially any further war- on the battlefields, at home, on the front and at the place of work, after 1945, during the war in Vietnam, now and evermore.
Between absorption and resistance, self-consciousness in the traditional places and detachment. Here the third movement of the camera is determined: out of the ground. – M.F.SIN THE HOLOCAUST, NOT AVAILABLE.
…A document also on peace in wartime. Women’s culture in the absence of men. Assisting others, but also perhaps coming closer to independence and resistance?…To prevent every further war in the field or in the home, at the front or at the workplace- that’s what women throughout the world fought for after the war in 1945, during the Vietnam War, now and over again.
