Maja Classen

Exploring queer sex-positive spaces with the aim of breaking down taboo subjects

Berlin-based filmmaker Maja Classen has found success digging into the sub- cultures and social issues of the world around her. After being accepted to the directing program at one of Germany’s most renowned film universities Konrad Wolf, Maja's first success was FEIERN (2006), a portrait of the Berlin club scene during the early 2000s, that was screened at numerous festivals and today is still perceived as an important portrayal of the electronic music scene of that time. With her new documentary film A BODY LIKE MINE and TRUTH OR DARE, she once again immersed herself into Berlin’s club scene, this time exploring queer sex-positive spaces with the aim of breaking down taboo subjects.
