Ulrike Ottinger (Ulrike Ottinger), a new German film director whose works are fewer and more rare than Weiner Schroeder, is the most unique female director in German films in the 1970s and one of the important figures in the experimental film branch of the new German films. Ulrike Ottinger was born in Constance in 1942, studied art, painting and photography in Munich from 1959 to 61, and then went to Paris to find her dream. She worked as a freelance artist in Paris throughout the 1960s, but experienced the hardship of life and the disillusionment of her ideals. When she returned to Germany in the early 1970s, she picked up the camera without professional film study. In 1973, she made her first documentary short film, Crazy Berlin, followed by Laokon and the Children (1975), a 40-minute surreal feature film. Mrs. X: the absolute ruler in 1978 pushed her to the vanguard of a German experimental film, a female avant-garde film masterpiece full of grotesque imaginations and metaphorical images. Doris Grey's photo in porn magazine in 1984 is a surreal plot.
