    Host Demetra Giannakopoulos speaks with writer and director Annette Baumeister, about her documentary Playing to Survive: Hitler vs von Cramm about the true story of Baron Gottfried von Cramm, a gay German tennis champion of the 1930s and 1940s. Annette’s film provides a detailed and enthralling account using a combination of archive footage, narration by Pierce Brosnan, animation, and interviews with tennis legends including Stefan Edberg and Billie Jean King.

You will be surprised what wider issues of discrimination this simple question actually reflects about women’s sports.
