Four women film each other getting dressed in this four-part film. The motive for making the film was to work with a Bolex camera. A protected space is created, to which only women have access – and in which the female gaze is directed towards the female body.

For a year at monthly intervals, Ute Aurand and Bärbel Freund filmed In the Garden, a lovely portrait of a Potsdam-Bornim garden designed in 1910 by gardener and philosopher Karl Foerster. An extraordinary variety of flora, natural lighting effects, textures and colors unfold in this gentle, expertly edited film, which forms a bridge between the natural world and the individual soul.

Short film featuring images of flowers.
