Katharina's life is thrown in the balance... A night spent with a suspected terrorist is the catalyst for a smear campaign against the otherwise unimportant life of Katharina Blum (Angelina Winkler). Katharina's life is thrown in the balance as both police and the news media strip her of all her dignity and sanity in this shocking German attack on power abuse and yellow journalism. Directed by Volker Schlondorff and Margarethe von Trotta, the 1975 film is based on an equally menacing novel by Heinrich Boll. [More]

Reviews for The Lost Honor of Katherina Blum
The film’s final reel is the only vital weakness in an otherwise nasty but effective exposé on the abuses by those in and with power on those without.
Katharina Blum is a fictional case within a lens of subjectivity that affords a clear contemporary resonance.
