RIBBED TANKS AND CUP SIZE

A filmic investigation by Reinhild Dettmer-Finke

SWR 2000, 45 min. Germany/Belgium/France

Germany was said to be the land of knit fabric. What counts was warmth and support. It was time for a change of underwear and this was not only said by customers. In this film, we sneak a peak at the German world of underwear. Following the work of designers and lingerie manufacturers, we find out what men and women are really wearing “underneath” and inquire about the changing awareness of the body and attitude towards the erotic.
