With Liberators Take Liberties: War, Rapes, Children, Helke Sander has, to put it politely, divided opinion. Some believe she is involved in feminist historical revisionism; others have praised her as a cathartic breaker of taboos. Moreover, this long documentary film has occasioned a public debate between Sander and myself in the Frankfurter Rundschau of November 1992,1 and in the United States the film has also received mixed reviews-sympathetic endorsements as well as powerful rejections. In the following continuation of my critique I shall further develop some arguments concerning the relations between feminism and history that appear to me to be more important than ever.
