Noted actress Julia Buchmann portrays real-life Frieda Keller (1879-1942) in this powerful 2025 Swiss film about an important moment in the struggle for women’s rights.
That moment is Keller’s 1904 trial for murdering her young son. Her case forces male prosecutors to confront personal and professional dilemmas that challenge their views on morality and gender equality. As the trial unfolds, public protests and media attention highlight the unequal treatment of women in the legal system. Frieda’s fight for justice becomes a symbol of the broader struggle for gender equality and a mirror reflecting societal hypocrisy and injustice.
Presented as part of the Three Rivers Film Festival, the oldest film festival in the region.
