Summary
Crisis is Always
"Crisis is always" tells the story of a young woman’s politicization. In the midst of (anti)feminism, right-wing populism and precarity emerges a tender story of solidarity and friendship between the young protagonist Laura, her best friend Aylin, and Tamara, a non-binary trans person in her mid-sixties. Laura, in her early 20s, is looking for her place in life. She works as a cleaner in a hotel – precariously employed, in debt, and without any formal training or qualifications. Laura is in crisis. But there is a glimmer of hope: she wants to move in with Franziska, her partner. Franziska is a member of a new far-right party and Laura’s interest in politics is piqued. Laura is connected to her best friend Aylin, who works in the kitchen of the same hotel, through tender working-class solidarity. When Aylin finds out that Laura’s girlfriend Franziska is a member of a far-right party, Laura’s one friendship is at stake. It is only through a chance encounter with the 60-something trans activist, Tamara, that she is able to gain a new perspective.
