The story of Felice, a young Jewish lesbian, and Elizabeth, a Gentile wife and mother, during the Holocaust. Elizabeth eventually divorced her husband, moved in with Felice, and the two of them attempted to establish a haven from the madness that surrounded them. But then Felice was deported: first to Czechoslovakia, then to a concentration camp. At the age of 80, Elizabeth finally told her story to journalist Erica Fischer, who complemented the saga with historical background, interviews with Elizabeth's and Felice's friends, and letters, diaries, and photos. And director Max Farberbock made a movie of that book.
Machtig mooie film, gemaakt naar Erica Fischer's boek AIMEE UND JAGUAR (verkrijgbaar in het Engels); Maria Schrader en Juliane Köhler spelen groots in de film Aimée & Jaguar (regie Max Farberbock, 1999)
