Released in 1919, Anders als die Andern is a remarkable artefact of the pre-Stonewall homosexual rights movement of early-twentieth-century Germany. Ervin Malakaj shows how the film's "mournful cinema" is key to its endurance, fostering connection through emotions and acting as a springboard to engage in an intergenerational queer struggle.
