The documentary film project Between Images concerns how abortion is represented in movies and TV shows, from silent films of the 1920ies through Hollywood classics like Dirty Dancing, to the long-running German soap opera Gute Zeiten, schlechte Zeiten, first broadcast in 1992. The film portrays women who themselves have had abortions and shows them together watching, questioning and commenting on found footage scenes presenting stereotypes, clichés as well as empowering moments. Between Images follows a non-linear narrative about abortion, representation, and the power of images.
