The film premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival in 1982 and was shown, for example, at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City in 1983.[1][2]
This film, based on a novella by Alexandra Kollontai, is about the Soviet women's rights activist and revolutionary Vasilissa, who wants to emancipate herself from her domineering lover Vladimir, the director of the trade cooperative. The last resort left to her is to kill the bitter patriarch.[3]
The renowned German critic Hellmuth Karasek wrote in the magazine Der Spiegel: "Rosa von Praunheim, who since his early hits The Bed Sausage and Berlin Bed Sausage has known how to put us out of our minds about the neat distinction between kitsch and art, between emotion and sentimentality, has also staged a pleasurably disturbing conundrum with Red Love."[4]
