About Katarina Witt - Weltstar aus der DDR
With two Olympic victories, four world championship titles and six European championship titles, Katarina Witt is the most successful female athlete in the history of figure skating. She combines East German identity with international flair and is still the "most beautiful face of socialism" - and the most internationally renowned citizen of the former GDR. The film follows the path of the girl from Saxony all the way to Hollywood.
Directed by Jobst Knigge, Katarina Witt - Weltstar aus der DDR leans on a strong ensemble — Katarina Witt, Brian Boitano, Sandra Bezic — 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 documentary titles of 2020.
