The Most Dazzling Girl in Berlin

Kip Wilson

After leaving the orphanage when she turns 18, Hilde is alone in 1932 Berlin and has heard nothing from her girlfriend Gretchen for months. She finds work and a sense of refuge at Café Lila, a gay nightclub, where waitress and performer Rosa welcomes her into its community. Hilde is drawn to Rosa and struggles with stage fright as well as the fear of telling Rosa how she feels. Meanwhile, the growing power of the National Socialist Party, anti-Jewish hostility, and persecution of gay people increasingly endanger Rosa, her aunt, and the people around Café Lila.
