The film's story seems radically ordinary today: a young teacher, Philipp, is gay but cannot accept the truth about his sexuality. He starts a relationship with a fellow teacher, Tanja, but falls in love with a man he meets, Matthias, whose confidence in his own self-understanding is alluring for him as well as a challenge. Acclaimed director Heiner Carow created a film that shows the difficulties, both internalized and external, that queer people faced in East Germany. In a quirk of history, Coming Out premiered in German theaters on November 9, 1989, the very night on which the Berlin Wall was opened, which meant the film was initially overshadowed, to say the least, by the earthshaking political events. Yet it remains a popular film and is regularly screened around the world, including prominently at queer film festivals. Kyle Frackman's book examines the film in both the late East German context of its creation and the international context of its reception"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 505 0 $a Heiner Carow and film's revolutionary potential -- Homosexuality in East Germany -- The distress of coming out -- Melodrama and its excesses -- Romance and the love story -- Philipp and Tanja's courtship -- Queer exploration -- Change and upheval -- a new beginning -- Coming out and reconciling identities -- Acceptance -- Release, reception, and legacy. 630 00 $a Coming out (Motion picture : 1989) 650 0 $a Homosexuality in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Motion pictures $z Germany (East) $x History. 650 7 $a Homosexuality in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00959829 650 7 $a Motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027285 651 7 $a Germany (East) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210274 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Frackman, Kyle. $t Coming out $d Rochester, NY : Camden House, 2022 $z 9781800103023 $w (DLC) 2021053508 830 0 $a Camden House German film classics. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117030217.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DE5BC7ECEE0211ECABFB385646ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
