Queen of Condoms ONLINE ANSCHAUEN: STREAMEN, LEIHEN ODER KAUFEN

Soon after the Cuban revolution Monika Krause, a citizen of the GDR, falls in love with Jesús Jimenez, a Cuban captain who has come to Rostock to pick up a freight ship. The 20-year-old student follows her captain to Cuba and, once there, soon starts to mix in the highest circles of the revolution. She becomes Fidel Castro’s translator. A few years later she gains nationwide fame in her capacity of state sex educator with a radio and TV programme of her own. In this land where macho rules, the emancipated German fights for the right of a woman to her own body, sexual gratification, contraception and to have an abortion. As a taboo-breaker, she becomes known overnight throughout the country as la Reina del Condón – Queen of Condoms: loved and adored by some, hated and feared by others.
