Script: Anna Gmeyner. A Viennese Scriptwriter in Exile<br />
Presented by Synema in cooperation with the Austrian Film Museum<br />
As the eldest of Rudolf and Luise Gmeyner's three daughters, Anna Gmeyner was born in<br />
Vienna on the 16th March 1902. From Berlin, Moscow, Paris and London she arrived in New<br />
York, where she died in 1991. With her writing, she made a considerable contribution to the<br />
history of cinema's great success, but despite this her works remain largely unknown. An<br />
appreciation of her work as a film writer will remember this extraordinary woman and an up to<br />
now very under-appreciated part of her oeuvre.<br />
