Documentary about the sisters Lene and Berta who live in a village in Thuringia.

36 year old welder Karin works at an agricultural factory in Mecklenburg, Germany.

Wittstock an der Dosse is located in the German state Mark Brandenburg, apx. 90 kilometers from Berlin. Since 1974 Volker Koepp visited the town several times to examine life of the female workers in the textile industry. He interviewed them about their work, spare-time, thoughts and feelings. Three of them were questioned repeatedly for a long-time overview. This is the outcome of 10 years of Koepp's work. Written by Tom Zoerner

The fourth part of the Wittstock cycle is not only a continuation of the cinematic chronicle of the "Ernst Lück" tricot factory, but also a first summary of the development of the company since its almost ten-year existence. Edith Rupp takes center stage. She is now a master craftswoman and has become engaged, but is still skeptical about what the future will bring.

Part 3 of the Wittstock series also shows the surroundings of the textile factory. Older gentlemen in a pub reveal that two factories produced fabrics for the military here during the Second World War. In 1945, only a handful of handlooms remained. The contemporary witness does not say why. It was probably too sensitive to reveal the reason on camera in 1978: The Soviet occupying power dismantled many production facilities in the GDR after the end of the war and transported them to the home of the victorious Red Army.
