Petra Kelly was a trailblazing political figure of the 20th century, co-founding the German Green Party in 1980 — the world’s first green party to achieve prominence. A passionate advocate for peace, environmental protection, and human rights, she fought for radical social change and believed in the power of individuals to transform the world. Influenced by the American civil rights movement and Martin Luther King’s concept of civil disobedience, she campaigned against uranium mining and stood in solidarity with peace movements worldwide. Through rare archival footage and personal accounts, the film portrays a visionary leader whose ideals continue to inspire today’s climate activists. Her issues are today more topical than ever before.
