Raising the voice<\/strong>
Olga Benario believes she can make a difference. In 1925, she leaves her Munich home and moves to “red Neuk\u00f6lln.” She becomes head of propaganda for the Communist Youth Movement, becomes a Comintern agent in the Soviet Union, and eventually a bodyguard for Luiz Carlos Prestes, the leader of the Brazilian Revolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stifling the voice<\/strong>
The uprising is bloodily put down. In 1936, the pregnant Olga is handed over to the Gestapo. In 1942 she is murdered. She is able to give a song to her daughter Anita, born in Nazi custody, when they separate:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Comes a bird flown
Sits down on my foot
Has a note in its beak
A greeting from her mother<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Dear bird, fly on
Take my greeting with you
a kiss
For I cannot go with you
accompany you
Cause I must stay here<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Finding a voice
<\/strong>The artistic team around director Kathrin Herm and composer Dariya Maminova develops a multi-voiced narrative about this extraordinary woman. Based on the very personal and at the same time censored letters that Olga Benario and Luiz Carlos Prestes wrote to each other in prison and on the Gestapo file of Benario on the one hand, as well as interviews with people for whom Olga Benario still has a meaning today on the other hand, the four performers and musicians cast a variety of spotlights on Benario’s life and at the same time circle the power and pitfalls of heroine stories. Thus, between contemporary composition, new songs and workers’ songs, a musical theater is created that bridges 100 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
