With imagery evoking German Expressionism and the dynamic days of the birth of Cinema, it tells the story of Marlene's life and times. The period songs, with their acidic, cynical tone, so characteristic of that Weimar Decadence, serve to highlight Marlene's status as an erotic pioneer with her gender ambiguity.
Here on the front lines, Marlene unveils her contradicting faces: selfless war hero, tyrannical mother, unrestrained lover, and insatiable romantic. Interspersed with her songs, private letters and films, My Marlene seduces the audience while bombs fall all around.
