Fantasy, Sci-Fi
Lesbian filmmaker Ulrike Ottinger’s first feature film is an extravagant, unconventional allegory about Madame X, a pirate queen of the China Seas who assembles a crew of stereotypical women – such as the housewife and the diva – who wish to leave their mundane lives behind for a utopian adventure. The women soon fall into self-destruction, however, as they replicate the power dynamic of the outside world among themselves. In German with English subtitles.
