Einfach Machen! She-Punks von 1977 bis heute is a documentary that explores the rise of female punk artists in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland from the late 1970s to the present day. Against the backdrop of the punk movement’s explosive arrival from the UK and the United States, the film highlights how women embraced punk’s DIY spirit to challenge social expectations, gender stereotypes, and the male-dominated music industry.

Featuring pioneering musicians from influential bands such as Östro 430, Mania D, Malaria!, Kleenex, and LiLiput, the documentary combines personal stories, archival material, and contemporary performances to trace the evolution of German-language She-Punk. Artists including Gudrun Gut, Beate Bartel, Bettina Köster, Sara Schär, Klaudia Schifferle, Martina Weith, and Bettina Flörchinger reflect on creativity, rebellion, feminism, and self-determination through music.

More than a historical retrospective, Einfach Machen! She-Punks von 1977 bis heute celebrates the enduring legacy of women who transformed punk into a platform for artistic freedom and social change, inspiring generations of musicians and redefining the cultural landscape of European punk.
