About the German artist Käthe Kollwitz (1867-1945) who worked with painting, printmaking (including etching, lithography and woodcuts) and sculpture. She died at Moritzburg, near Dresden, in April 1945, shortly before the end of WWII. As the film begins she is an old woman in the last months of her life, contemplating death. Using words taken from her diaries and letters, she looks back over her life and work.

George Grosz, born on July 26th in Berlin, vicious draftsman and painter of the face of the ruling class, enfant terrible of the 1920s, accused of pornography and blasphemy, was one of the most popular visual artists of the Weimar Republic. Little is known, however, that Grosz spent half of his artistically productive life in the USA before returning to Berlin in 1959.
