Susanne Heinrich is a writer and filmmaker. As a writer, she has published several volumes of stories and novels, while as a filmmaker she has so far mainly made the film “Das melancholische Mädchen”, which caused a sensation in 2019 because it combines an unabashedly feminist analysis of capitalism with an independent cinematic form and a performance that goes beyond representation or identification and is both precise and comedic. Susanne Heinrich has received numerous awards both as a writer and as a filmmaker and was a fellow at the Villa Aurora.
