Katarina Witt - Weltstar aus der DDR (2020)
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.
