玛加蕾特·冯·特罗塔

Margarethe von Trotta (born 21 February 1942) is a German film director who has been referred to as a "leading force" of the New German Cinema movement.[1][2] Von Trotta's extensive body of work has won awards internationally.[1] She was married to and collaborated with director Volker Schl?ndorff. Although they made a successful team, von Trotta felt she was seen as secondary to Schl?ndorff.[3] Subsequently, she established a solo career for herself and became "Germany’s foremost female film director, who has offered the most sustained and successful female variant of Autorenkino in postwar German film history".[4] Certain aspects of von Trotta's work have been compared to Ingmar Bergman's features from the 1960s and 1970s.[5]　　Margarethe von Trotta　　TROTTA1.jpg　　von Trotta in 2007　　Born　　21 February 1942 (age 76)　　Berlin, Germany　　Occupation　　Film director, screenwriter, actress　　Years active　　1968 - present　　Spouse(s)　　(First Husband) 1964-1968 (one son Felix Moeller)　　Volker Schl?ndorff 1971-1991　　Von Trotta has been called "the world’s leading feminist filmmaker."[6] The predominant aim of her films is to create new representations of women.[7] Her films are concerned with relationships between and among women (sisters, best friends, etc.), as well as with relationships between women and men, and involve political setting. Nevertheless, she rejects the suggestion that she makes "women’s films".[8]
