About Prof. Dr. med. Maria Fabian
Maria and Tatjana met during the Second World War and became friends for life, especially as they had to endure difficult days together during the Hitler fascist era. This friendship also gave Maria the strength to study medicine after the war and to succeed as a doctor. But the ongoing fight against the common class enemy also welds the two women together, and Maria Fabian then unexpectedly meets the former landowner and current industrialist Guttenberg. He was the tormentor of her family during the Nazi era; now it is time for Maria, now a self-confident woman who owes her professional success to her state, the GDR, to successfully confront this representative of the class enemy.
Directed by Kurt Veth, Prof. Dr. med. Maria Fabian leans on a strong ensemble — Renate Richter, Günter Naumann, Stefan Lisewski — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1972.
