A Swiss Rebel - Trailer

Based on recently discovered archive material, this first-ever documentary about Annemarie Schwarzenbach is the portrait of a woman from one of the biggest fortunes of Zurich - a family with open inclinations towards the Nazi order. A writer, journalist, and photographer, Schwarzenbach travelled the world denouncing European fascism and the exploitation of American workers. A complex woman, she lead an unending quest for identity, struggled with drug addiction, and lived a bohemian life in Berlin in the twenties and thirties. Filmmaker Carole Bonstein reveals the fascinating story of a lesbian political radical, a romantic deceiver and an adverturer who rejected her prescribed role in life. Watch the full film here:
