Two Best Girl Friends (1990)

Directed by Bärbel Neubauer

Animation · 12m

A couple of women meet at a café, where one talks incessantly about the men in her life in a heavy Bavarian dialect, while her so-called best friend sits silently, surrounded by smoke. The conversation is superficial and stilted, highlighted by the exaggerated and caricatured animation style. Only when the talkative woman leaves to meet her new boyfriend does the silent one speak, ordering a beer. The scene critiques the societal expectation that women should focus their conversations solely on men, often ignoring the discomfort of others.
